Have you seen Glasgow today?

hi there,

just got a call from my friend telling me how busy glasgow was with aircraft of all sizes, so on my lunch break I decided to take the 3 mile journey down the airport and see for myself,

Oh my word, i have never seen Gla this busy in all my life, its because of the champions league final of course, the second short runway was closed because ther was about 18 737's parked on it, mostly spanish, and god knows how many plane spotters there are, aswell as that the private part of the airfield is jumping, must be about 20-25 private no's aswell as 3, 747 400's, your lucky when you see one at glasgow a month, the buses taking pax are having to be escorted over the runway by ops and police, lookes like a mini moughabi desert with them all lined up,

I know this is probably normal for you people living next to heathrow but this is glasgow and its quite facinating,

The ATC will be feeling the pressure,

most of them will be gone tommorow so if your close get on down and see it,

see ya later
