Sunday Teatime Visit to Birmingham For A New A320Neo!

 

    So earlier on my what's due to Birmingham, I put down that new Lufthansa City Airbus A320Neo was predicted to operate from Munich around teatime. But as we all know with aircraft spotting sometimes at the last moment due tech problems or operational reasons the aircraft will change. For me this has happened multiple time over the years.

    So before setting off I doubled checked Flight Radar and the A320neo was in the air and coming my way. So quickly jumping in the car off I headed to the airport. The Lufthansa was making its first visit to Birmingham

Mid Morning Visit To Birmingham Airport

 

    It feel like its been years since I last made a visit to an airport. My job roll has now changed with my roll being much more office based than out on the road, so my daily visits to airports may become few and far between. But as today I was let out the offer for a job in Solihull, so I grabbed the chance to call into Birmingham Airport for a required Boeing 737 Max 8 of Turkish Airlines, and a quick cathc up with some of the local spotters.

Back Out On The Road And Back At Birmingham!

    So After a short period off work due to illness, I was back at it and hitting the UK motorway network heading to the Birmingham Airport Area. My first visit of the day was just to see what was about now that the summer time table is coming to an end. The second visit of the day was to catch one of the newer Jet2 Airbus A321Neo which is currently based at Birmingham. I expect the movements to start dying down fast now the main holiday season is over and a couple of airlines are pulling out for the winter time table.

Quick Half Hour At Heathrow Before I Head To The Hotel.

  

    So today I headed to London for a training course, which will continue tomorrow. Luckily it's not that far from Heathrow. My bosses gave me the choice of which hotel I would prefer to stay in, and of course I chose the premier inn on Bath Road. But luck wasn't on my side  today with the aircraft landing on Runway 09L. I found a small lay-by just on the other side of the M25 motorway. it wasn't the greatest place to spot, but it was good enough with the help of flight radar

    Here's what was logged from around 1630 on approach to runway 09L:

Late Summer Early Morning Visit To Manchester

 

    Well it was back to my second home in the north this morning, Manchester Airport. So after a quick up at level 13 on the terminal one multi storey car park, I headed round to the south side viewing mounds. As I've said in my previous blogs when the sun is shining and it behind up there is no better place for me in the United Kingdom for plane spotting and photography.

The good thing that I love about Manchester is the early morning heavy traffic from the Middle East and Asian Countries. So here's what was noted around 0930 this morning:

    SE-RFZ TUI Boeing 787-9

    A6-EVB Emirates Airbus A380

    G-VRAY Virgin Atlantic Airbus A330

Super Sunday With A Couple Of Visits to Birmingham!

 

    Snook out the house this morning to catch the first visit of the One Air Boeing 777F G-ONEG making its first visit from Baku whilst operating Silk Way West Airlines. This was just a quick visit for a photograph. At this time of the morning (06:00) the other aircraft are the same as I logged the other day. So after a quick five minutes I was back on the road home.

    Later on in the day after being driven crazy by the children to go skating, I once again called in Birmingham to see what was about, and I could sum it up in one word "nothing". With the summer season now coming to an end I personally think that the winter is going to be slow with the number of movements, but hopefully the freight movements will bring the airport some interesting movements.

    The following aircraft noted at around 17:45

    G-EZFT easyjet Airbus A319

    TC-JSY Turkish Airlines Airbus A321

    9H-WNP Wizz Air Airbus A321Neo

    D-AILB Lufthansa Airbus A319

    EI-EXE Ryanair Boeing 737-800

    EI-EKO Ryanair Boeing 737-800

    G-TUIO TUI Boeing 787-9

    Just as I got home an Asiana Airlines Airbus A350-900 HL8360 routing of my house for London Heathrow. I cant remember the last time I had a Korean Airliner fly over my house.

Early Morning Manchester Airport!

 

    So today I had the chance of some extra work in the Manchester area. I couldn't be there till after 7am so I called in at the Airport to see what was about.

    I know Manchester is a much bigger airport than Birmingham and the amount of passengers and aircraft movements is double if not more, but compare this log to yesterdays log of Birmingham and you can really see the difference. I've said it many times before and will many times more. Manchester is the best spotting airport in the UK and in my top 5 in Europe.
