Saturday Spotting Session With the Kids

 


        Something what I've been wanting to do for most of the summer was take the girls to Sheldon Park to watch the aircraft arrive and depart whilst landing over the park. So today would be that day, runway 15 was in use, the weather from where I was at home seemed fine and a required Pegasus Airbus A321Neo heading to Birmingham made the trip a good idea.

    We arrived there just past midday just at a Turkish Airlines Airbus A321Neo came screaming over our heads. My eldest seemed a little put off by the noise, but the youngest was loving it here and when the time came to leave we had a melt down!!!

Here's what was seen on our couple hours visit to Birmingham Airport today:

Etihad Airways Cargo Boeing 777F at BHX


 It was great to get up close with a wide body Freighter at BHX especially when I guess which in a retro livery., well the airlines old livery.

Trip Report Birmingham (EGBB/BHX) 4th January 2025

 Firstly Happy New Year to everyone. So the first trip of the year down to Birmingham (BHX) to catch the Etihad Cargo Boeing 777F that was operating into Birmingham today.
I didn't need this Aircraft as i saw it at Amsterdam last year, but with these visits being rare at Birmingham off I went. With the threat of snow all day and being bitterly cold I arrived at a packed Multi-storey car park. 

The usual suspects where parked up with a Enter Air Boeing 737-800 parked up on the remote 70's stands and in front of me on the Elmdon Apron was National Boeing 747-400F N537CA. This would be later towed over to the terminal side to make way for the later freight arrivals, being a Maersk Air Boeing 767-300F and on its first visit to Birmingham Silkways Boeing 777F VP-BMU.

The nice thing about the Etihad freighter for me was that it was still wearing the old livery of the Airline.

Birmingham Airport 3rd November Fleetair ATR72F HA-KAY


 Love it when the new operator decides to leave the aircraft in its former operators livery. Even more so when it something as exotic as the OHANA by Hawaiian
