Spectators Balcony (Spotters Corner) If you're not a professional pilot but want to discuss issues about the job, this is the best place to loiter. You won't be moved on by 'security' and there'll be plenty of experts to answer any questions.

BHX Photos (17/03/05)

Went to BHX (Brum Airport) today and here are a few photos, it was a nice few hours with plenty to see. Had clear blue sky at times but also plenty of cloud, airliner's ain't my main interest so I'm not 100% sure what I was watching but it was a nice change from historic or military stuff.

Just arrived when this was taking of.


This landed rather close to the end of the runway, full reverse thrust


BA RJ.


Another jet take's off.


And another take off.


737.


757 well maybe.


About the only non jet their 2day.


Loads of these around.


Ryanair.


Air France.


Air Emerites, came and went late.


This was loud, nice


So was this.


Taxing in after landing.


Last one.

Depends how you define boring really. There are plenty of movements during the day so there is normally something to watch & quite a variety of types/airlines which I wouldn'd describe as boring. I suppose that if your an enthusaist/spotter, then there isn't much in the way of interesting flights/aircraft that can't be seen at a typical large European airport.

You could probably get away with calling Coventry boring although they do get some nice types operating into there

Devil

I'm going to put diplomacy aside and be absolutely frank with you andrewman, they are poor quality pictures. They wouldn't have made the cut on Airliners.net or any other similar sites. Even though this is the Spotters Corner, let's not please start saturating it with photos, especially third rate photos. There are plenty of dedicated sites for that. We all have to start somewhere andrewman and you will get better.

Now awaiting lots of incoming flak

Avmnan - you have put my thoughts into words for me.

Andrewman - to preserve our forum space we ask that you post less pictures. Perhaps a link to your web site would suffice - as long as it is not 'commercial' of course!

You'd have thought they would have levelled the ground before they built the runway! Must be fun on the approach - "Minimums, 50, 30,20,50,20,10,minimums,30,50,10 bang!

Not wanting to pish on yer chips dude but Avman has been totally honest. What we are looking at are a bunch of third rate snaps rather than photographs. I say that because a professional once described my early attempts thus.
It cut me to the bone, but when I recovered I had to admit he was 100% right.

Anyone or their granny could have snapped thes pics with anything from a disposable upwards. You have to learn to develop a style to seperate yourself from the crowd.

You will hate me now but you will thank me later.

Develop your skills Dude !!!!
