Exactly why we need those aircraft warning lights, I'm sure the aircraft are getting closer

Awesome photo. At first glance I thought it was somewhere in America. Any idea where its taken from?

From looking at the picture, it seems to be overlooking the Northbound M6 at Junction 3A (Coleshill Interchange). It is most likely drone footage taken from the fields north of the interchange, can't see any towers or high points nearby.

On my iPad I counted seven cranes (any more?) indicating that there is still lots of building activity in the CBD.

Cycled up to catch this landing and just made it, very hot it was but I think it was worth it, these things look great IMHO.

Had to cycle to the other end of the runway today, lighting wasn't so good but I'm happy with the shot.
