    Thanks laddies!!
    Good to put a face to the name,Peter. Have met you at the gates a few times too.
    With a better angle could have got the 757 completely under the rainbow.

    Cheers Phil,
    Great if you were a spotter, not so great to pay stupid amounts of money for a flat at a prestige Docklands site to have constant jets flying past your window hehe (future nimby’s perhaps??)

    great pics , i wernt there sunday afternoon , have you tried going to the other side of the the runway for some shots ?

    TBH Caz, i never have the time, i’m usually just on a flying visit (no pun)also, on a nice day you would be shooting into the sun, would have liked to get some shots of the biz ramp, which was absolutely heaving today (but that would mean walking…no no no no :diablo: )
    The Fokker fairly attacks the runway heavy nose down till about 10 feet before flaring…crazy pilots :diablo:
    Would’nt mind flying out of it myself….get a good view of Canary Wharf hehe.
    Cheers Sam also. 😀

    Yes,true. but if you remember over half the aircraft at GLA were bringing in ticketless fans to crowd out the city,to watch their team in the biggest club final on the planet, IIRC in 2004 UEFA final was at Gothenburg (Valencia v Marseille) seem to remember there was about 12 football flights and some biz.
    Not slagging the uefa cup, when Celtic went to Seville it was fantastic, but, it really is nothing compared to the big one.

    In MAN’s case there will be less as I think the City of Manchester stadium is smaller than Old Trafford. In GLA’s case I think we can expect the same as a few years ago as its at the same stadium so obviously same capacity.

    Afraid there won’t be anything near the traffic GLA,PIK and EDI got for the CL final, the UEFA cup is just nowhere near as prestigious as the CL final.
