Birmingham Airport - Picture Thread

[Ray Finkle]

I see somebody has took it upon themselves to use my photo as their Facebook page cover.

I guess I should be flattered :blush:

"Birmingham Airport Staff", very appropriate picture Ray!
In fact my favourite pictures of BHX are always the ones of tails lined up on the Pier. Keep them coming!

Shall i contact them and ask for them to join this forum, im assuming they work at BHX ????? They could be very useful to us all Re: Gossip and rumours etc etc


Gotta agree though, that pic is bostin :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff:


I also used that pic on the "other forum" ray but i always credit you and Forums4Airports

 

[Ray Finkle]

I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask them although that Facebook page seems very quiet.

I'm not too bothered about them using the picture but it would have been nice if they'd had the courtesy to ask first :s_yes

I know mate and you can post as many of my pics as you want :good:

As it was running 90 mins early I just couldn't resist :smile:

Taken from kitts Green as I've not got time to get down to BHX for the water arch.

Another water arch with rainbow - anna.aero will be impressed!!

 

[jfy1999]

That looks like a world-beater. But I can't decide between it and the American arch.
The plane looks a little old and grubby though :s_sad

 

[CL44]

The plane may look a bit grubby but it is better to have a dirty plane than not at all. It was a nice sight to see it parked up at the terminal this morning.

And then of course we have the Silk Way Airlines IL-76 (which hovered it's way down the runway until finally deciding to plant it's undercarriage!).

This is currently on the Elmdon apron (unfortunately hidden by what is left of Hanger No 1 so I cannot see what is coming off or going on board).

I have seen a departure time of 1230 for this flight. Any one have any other information at all?

 

[jfy1999]

It departed at 11:58 I think, according to FR24.

 

[Ray Finkle]

That's a pretty spectacular arch and should be enough to regain top spot, something which I think we lost unfairly :s_yes

A couple more from this morning. I wish I'd waited another 10 minutes for United as it was in the Star Alliance livery.

I like the rather unconventional nose-down approach of the Antonov. I also like any shots of aircraft lined up on the pier.

Another runway change 10 mins before UR-CKC arrived meant all the photographers at Marston Green turned the air blue :s_mad

That is a smashing variety of aircraft and airlines on what has to be the best day of the year so far. I still don't know why the EuroAtlantis 767 visited though.

 

[Ray Finkle]

Fantastic pictures Sir :hatsoff:

FR24 shows that CS-TRW arrived again at 01:20 from Monastir.
