Is that the first time that BHX has had 3 B747's on the ground at the same time that are it's 'own' flights i.e. not diverts?

OMG, what a sight. Should be able to see the top once fully built, I think we are on Floor 42/49 ??

Also whilst on a SkyscraperCity Forum meet up last week, noticed aircraft warning lights half way up the tower, going to look awesome when the crown is lit up.

Looks like something just passed planning in Leeds, 46 storey residential.

Ah a SSC meet-up! I went on a Leeds one a few years back with our very own @Bigman who also attended. It was actually really great night.

Great photos. It always amazes me how old things looked in 2000 - it doesn't feel like that long ago but its another era when it comes to aircraft livery design, for example. Many were very boring and some were hideous, though some were great (I cant quite believe that that Britannia livery hasn't made a reappearance...).

The Saudi pilot was very nice for waving! Nice shot on the EK too. Have you got anymore Saudia shots? Always keen to see some as SV is now my favourite airline at BHX.

 

[elmdon74]

As requested,Thanks,Simon.

HZ-AR22 still looks good for a 7 year old airframe huh?

I wonder when they'll actually start to apply the retro now current livery on their 789s like what they did with HZ-ARB (albeit that was for the 94th National Day Livery...).
