    Birmingham Airport - Picture Thread

    What I do (and if there is an easier method, I would love to know), is open the picture in Flickr that I want to post. Then, at the bottom right of the screen click on the curved arrow icon (Share Photo). In the window that opens, select 'Embed'. Then copy all of the text in the text window...

    Birmingham Airport - Picture Thread

    You should be able to link photos from Flickr and post them on F4A. I do, but it can be time consuming.

    Nostalgia at BHX

    I remember it well, including the BBC broadcast. I regularly used the MAGLEV across to the NEC. Also, I loved flying on the One-Elevens, but also flew on Netherlines Saab 340, NLM F-28 and Emirates A330 form/to BHX. I loved the spotters lounge and spent far too much of my time in there. Such a...

    Leeds Bradford - General Thread

    Already posted here - (https://forums4airports.com/threads/53/post-282715) But better, if both had been posted in the Leeds Bradford Airport > Video Thread (https://forums4airports.com/threads/1052/page-7). That way, the forum is more easily searchable and avoids duplicate posts.

    Safety First Air Accidents and Incidents discussions

    Two planes collide on Heathrow 'runway'. An unfortunate incident, that will cause delays to passengers departures and aircraft out of service for BA and Virgin. Why oh why, do journalists list any part of the airport that is tarmac as 'the runway'. This incident clearly happened on the apron...

    Qatar Airways

    I'm sure that the Qatar flight crew will be fully aware of the configuration of their aircraft. As @Karl C says, it is most likely to allow the brakes to cool. The flight has continued on it's planned routing and is currently at FL410 and 540 kts. It would not be there if the undercarriage was...

    What are you watching now?

    Has anyone been watching the new BBC series 'Mammals'? It started on BBC1 last Sunday, at 7pm and is presented by Sir David Attenborough. As always, it is exceptionally good and if you missed it, it's available on BBCiPlayer.

    Random Stuff!

    Messages get moved, to try and keep discussions localised in one (most appropriate) thread. Otherwise, we end up with the same topic being discussed in several different airport forums, which makes a mess of trying to follow what's going on. Much better to have a single discussion in the most...
