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:

    Another week of work is over. Lots of driving again with visits to the usual airports. So today I couldn't help my self  popping into Birmingham Airport as I was coming along the M42 Motorway heading back home.

A Wet And Miserable Manchester Morning

 

    So work took me today to Stockport for my first job of the day. From where I was, I could hear the aircraft but due to the poor weather conditions they wasn't visible. How the weather has changed over the past few weeks. I have a few days off towards the end of the month so weather permitting I plan to venture once again to the South Side Spotting locations.

    So once my work was completed and was told to head back down the motorway back to the depot, I headed to Level 13 on the Car Park to catch the morning heavies!.

Couple Of Visits To Birmingham Airport Either Side Of A Job In Solihull

 

    Once again Solihull was my destination of work today. Having done a couple of jobs in the morning I once again ended up at the Elmdon Multi storey car park to have my lunch break. There wasn't much of interest due into the Airport for me. Pegasus sent a Boeing 737-800 instead of the usual mixture of Airbus A320 And A321Neo. One that I wasnt Sure if I needed or not was the Ryanair Boeing 737 Max8-200 EI-IKK which was operating the service from Cork.
