    Yes and my point is that LBA wasn’t suggesting it IS such a location, but instead WAS such a location, when it was an RAF base.

    ah i see apologies there mate.

    My point is though would you really land a shuttle at a commerical airport?? too much risk in my opinion.

    Im sure that Doncaster is the longest because it was also the emergency landing for the space shuttle!

    You sure mate would they really land a damaged shuttle at a commercial airport. more likely to go fairford or that place in spain.

    hey dudes back from the chillis gig was awesome anywho back to ncl, not to sure about the length mate but i know this the 747 cant take off from ncl with a heavy load. same for the triple 777.

    infact the A330 sometimes struggles to get airborne from ncl.

    Plans are in place to extend the runway a 100 metres or so some time in the next few years.

    BA wont be sending up 757s now for the heathrow and gatwick runs as BA are getting rid of the 757. Infact theres a chance we may see a BA 767 in from time to time.

    Right dudes im back was an awesome day got to see loads of areas of the airport damn its been a while. Was unable to take my new camera as me dad knicked off with it last night!! Took a few pics but most of them were crap but heres some. When driving up the run way we had to vacate it rather fast seen as a easyjet captain decided to call in from 6 miles out! Cue a fast dash to the end of the runway!! I also had lunch in the british airways lounge next to the departure gates which was loverly.

    Number one is the plane that took the england team to Germany, even got to sit in the cockpit OH YEAH!!
