airbus at bristol filton
does anybody know what I assume to be an Airbus was doing mid afternoon on Thursday 3May at the old Filton aerodrome. I t appeared to 2 ccts of the Airbus factory then headed west

I assume you mean this horrifying and shocking event.....:ugh: Panicked residents see plane fly just 2,000 feet up in test flight | Daily Mail Online I assume you weren’t one of the panicked residents....... I suspect the residents of Bristol are now the complete laughing stock of those that live in Wythenshawe or Hounslow. |
Did it land or do a T&G at Filton ? I thought that it was closed to aircraft other than helicopters ? That DM story, "They could see the pilot"........
|
I hadn't realised the A321LR's economics were so dire:
"The plane weighs 97 tonnes and would have been carrying 97 passengers if full" |
the rwy at Filton is full of large holes no fixed wing could land there .very impressive ccts with large bank angle , to the untrained eye and not ever seen an airbus doing low level ccts before it could seem quite nervy , staying close to the airfield never saw the pilots or the trees but I have seen them closer to my control tower before I retired

The Daily Mail strikes again with utter boll***s. They should see and hear the AWACS E-3 Sentry which passes low over my house on an almost daily basis. Now, THAT is noisy (but great)!
