Hey All, I was walking out of uni and just caught a glimpse of a plane landing at filton, the tree blocked it so much i couldnt tell what it was, but it looked fairly chuncky, and made a fair ammount of noise on landing...

Anyone know what it was?

Thanks for that, it looked like a 747, i should learn to trust my eyes more. I didnt know 747's landed at Filton. I am guessing that the runway there is longer than it seems...

No it isn't. Can't remember what it is now but it has not been there for several years now.

I think it was called Lowes and they left a few years ago now
