Groaning over Beckenham, Kent
Hi Everyone, My name is Luis, I'm 10 & live in Beckenham, Kent (nr Biggin Hill). I think I'm under the approach to LHR as you start to pass over my bedroom at about 5am every day. My question is what is the loud groan that the aircraft make, like an elephant (seriously). I think it's only Boeings that do it (guessing from looking thru my binoculars). When I was on a 757 recently I heard the noise from inside the aircraft when I was sitting behind the wing on the approach.
Thanks a lot, especially Capt V from Easyjet who was very good at explaining things a while ago in Spain. Flight Sim going well cheers.
