Next Stop Manchester! At Least It’s Friday

 

    After a Job in Birmingham first this this morning my next job was in Stockport, Greater Manchester. So you guessed it another visit to Manchester Airport. This time I decided to Give the runway viewing park a visit after a quick stop at Level 13 on the Terminal one multi storey cark park.

A Chance To See An Airbus A330Neo At BHX

 

    So my daily check of what coming into to Birmingham Airport (BHX) showed a first visit of the Pegasus Airbus A321Neo and a nice rare visit of an Hi-Fly Airbus A330-900Neo.

Me being me I'd forgot all about the A330 coming in and rushed to catch the Pegasus before it departed. But as i was at the airport the A330 was just about to land.

Trip Report And Log Birmingham 31st May 2025

 

    So being in the city centre tonight dropping the in-laws off for a evening meal I decided to pop into Birmingham Airport to see what was on offer. The roof level of car park 7, the Elmdon multi-storey car park is now open again to pedestrians only with access via the two stair cases. Be on your best behaviour as there is CCTV in operation.

    The main reason or excuse to go there was the night stopping Boeing 737-800F of Bahrain Cargo Airline Texel Air A9C-TXY.

The following where logged:

    A9C-TXY Texel Air Boeing 737-800F

    OE-LFM Zimex ATR72F

    EI-DWG Ryanair Boeing 737-800

    F-HBLO HOP EMB-190

    CS-GLM Biz Jet

    D-AIBK Lufthansa Airbus A319

    The only other aircraft of note for myself was the recently delivered Aer Lingus Regional ATR. Catching that was more by luck than judgement as it was operating over an hour late!
