Plane Spotting From The M25

 

    Whilst on the way back home from dropping the relatives off at London Gatwick I found myself stuck in heavy rush hour traffic on the M25 around Heathrow.

A Long Over Due visit to Manchester Airport

     A free Saturday, so I headed up to the northwest for a long over due visit to Manchester Airport. For me the only place to go to spot at Manchester is southside close to runway 23L. I'm currently having computer issues so I can't process and photos or make videos so another day with only the log book.

    For me the Manchester is one of best in the United Kingdom if not Europe for plane spotters for photography locations and the amount of different of airlines using the airport.
