Great to see a United 757 back at BHX, however it gave me a funny feeling that i cant explain

Great photo. Painful to see the United.

What is that Edith Piaf song about regrets? Nice that BHX kept the door open to United/Continental and fabulous that Etihad put in!!

I'd have told United to find somewhere else to land...

Definitely not Heathrow but it shows Birmingham as a major player in UK .

As to United/Continental, kindness is better than bitterness, let anyone land if the airfield can accommodate.

Not exactly environmentally friendly but I do love watching them come and go.

I feel sorry for the guy who has to shovel coal into four engines!

Noisy and Smokey, just like spotting at BHX used to be like with DC9s and BAC1-11s. Great days!

Great picture on a miserable day (weather wise).

Great to see an A330 at BHX, something we dont get to see very often.

Was this its first visit to BHX? Was wondering when we'd see one.

I looked out of my window just as it departed and it looked quite nice. That was from a distance though, I am yet to see it close up.
