EGNM doesn't have a runway 28/10 and, as far as I know, it never did.
Right, time for a quick tour through history then! Best if you open the photo in the link above - it's a useful guide.
As far as I know, LBA had three runways in war-time - the main runways being 01/19, 28/10 and an under-developed strip called 15/33. All three are still in existence today and visible in the picture - the main runway (15/33 now 14/32) and the other two as taxiways.
01/19 is the tarmac strip running from lower left to upper right of the picture, intersecting the main runway just after the 32 threshold. Its use as a runway was long since discontinued. It was latterly known as the North/South taxiway and rather restricted in terms of the size of aircraft which it could handle in view of the loading strength of the tarmac. An Aviogenex 727 was told by ATC to keep moving - quickly - after vacating right off Runway 14 onto the North/south to avoid sinking into the tarmac! #
In the top-right hand corner of the picture, the turning pan at the end of Runway 01 can be seen; this was used as a parking lot for snow-clearance vehicles for quite a long time, but also was the temporary parking place for the fleet of Capital Shorts 360s when that airline ceased flying.
28/10 is the tarmac strip running from mid-left to lower right of the picture. It was used as a runway up until around 2004 - primarily for flight training but also for a number of commercial movements given the main runway's propensity for crosswinds. Many a Shorts 360 and a few Air UK F27s used 28 for arrivals in high winds. There was also an occasion when the British Midland / Airways International 1-11-300 which haunted the Heathrow route for a couple of years landed on 28 late one night when operating the BD420 flight up from Heathrow. Its arrival caused great consternation in the Aero Club bar, since most of the occupants were rather worried that dear old G-WLAD would end up stopping alongside someone's Austin Montego in the Aero Club car park. The headwind down 28 was apparently so strong that it stopped in good time, where 28 met the main runway.
In the mid 1960s, 15/33 was developed as the primary runway and it used to be 5,400ft long. If you look back at the linked photo, the runway used to end at the inner marking points after the 14 threshhold, shortly before the bridge which houses the A road passing beneath and the exit to the left (as in this picture) onto the main apron. Some kindly soul decided that a nice big red and white checkerboard was needed at this end of the runway, just to remind you that the end of the runway was approaching fast. Largest aircraft at this time were Britannia's 737-200s (plus the odd Orion and Air Europe ones too), with British Midland Viscounts on the Heathrow run.
The runway extension from 5,400 to its current 7,382ft length was opened in November 1984 with visits from Wardair Canada and British Airways 747s on the same day. At about the same time, the runway was also re-aligned to become 14/32 in view of magnetic shift. British Midland upgraded the Heathrow service to DC9 operation from April 1985 and numerous other large aircraft visits started at around that time. Some forgotten include the JAT 707 and Iberia A300 every Sunday afternoon; others better best forgotten included the British Airtours TriStar every Monday afternoon.
First Concorde visit was Air France in August 1986; never to be seen again at Leeds. BA then took over Concorde's infrequent visits, although the crowning moment of Concorde operations at Leeds (excepting
that rather nerve-racking landing on 32 in about 1995) was a particularly lame and very high flypast one Bank Holiday Monday in about 1989 (in the days where BA still permitted such things). The Midland 412 (a DC9-15) following the big white bird up from Heathrow decided that he'd like a go at a flypast, and coolly upstaged Concorde with a rather low and fast beat-up along 32 before landing, for which the pilot was allegedly b****cked rigid after the event. Fine flying though.
And yes, the hill is Plane Tree Hill. Not a pine tree in sight, and I suspect there never was either.
