A nice video of VT-ANH arriving and departing. It shows just what a great spot the new viewing area is, and how the fence is a bit of a pain.

This video features the arrival and departure of Turkish Airlines Airbus A330-300, TC-JNK, as it visits Birmingham Airport in place of the usual 737 and A321 series aircraft. Turkish Airlines have recently announced an expansion of their Birmingham-Istanbul route to 12 weekly in 2015.

Also making an appearance is Emirates Boeing 777-300ER, A6-ENW on the lunch time arrival from Dubai as EK39. Video filmed Friday 19th December 2014.

Turkish A330

That is one AWESOME Video, thanks for sharing. Gonna watch that over and over again.
What perfect timing too, having the A330 at the end of runway 33 with the EK arriving too, these moments are why i love BHX despite some of its faults, you wouldnt get this at EMA or BRS or LTN, or STN.




Awesome :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff:

There's some great footage on there, I love the sound of those engines on the United 757 on 1:55.

It shows what a great spot the new viewing area is.

 

[Brum X]

Indeed it is, i can watch this video over and over again, i just love it.

And yeah, those United 757s. Soon we will have the Icelandair 757s too. :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Here's a really great video from flugsnug of slow motion touch downs. Fascinating to watch.

And a similar video but with just A330's.

It seems that if the pilot 'misses' the hump before the drop-offs in the runway then the planes can travel quite a distance before meeting the runway again. This seems particularly noticeable when landing from the bypass end where first touchdown appears to be opposite the old crossing runway which seems a heck of a long way down considering the recent runway extension!
