Рет қаралды 10,280
4 жыл бұрынFilmed on the morning of Sunday December 7th 2008 from the famous 'mound', perhaps one of the best spotting locations at Manchester Airport.
The first BMI A330 was a little hesitant to depart for some reason.

I was a Flight Dispatcher at MAN from 2005-2014 and 2008-2010 the airport had such an amazing buzz about it..such a mix of airlines and aircraft was fantastic!! So mundane these days with EZY FR and Jet2! Covid will kill the industry drastically too! But great memories from this footage!

In the 2000s there was like 8 or 9 holiday/charter airlines operating out of Manchester. Like you say nowadays there's barely any.

Really miss those old airlines, especially Monarch, Flybe, Thomas Cook, First Choice and Thomsonfly (Even although that's now TUI) And the airlines from the States that used to fly here like AA, United, Delta and USairways. I especially miss having the B747's B757's and B767's here. I think the remaining Jet2 757's are the last remaining british classics of MAN airport, probably going to cry when the last one goes probably at some point next year.

Absolutely stunning, thank you. I wonder why the BMI held the brakes so long? As usual the 757 climbs like a beast, love the RB211s sound.
@SimonLoweAviation Жыл бұрын
i believe in freezing conditions it's SOP for the crew to hold on the brakes and increase engine thrust to allow time for Compressor/fan blade de-icing.

Wow what a fantastic way to start a video with the truly iconic BMI A330! In my opinion this is one of the best liveries ever to adorn an A330, as it compliments it so perfectly. It will always be a treasured memory of mine seeing this beautiful bird in this livery at MAN both as a spotter and while working at the airport. Many thanks for capturing its beauty!

Flew on the BMI to Chicago 2006 I think and then on to Orlando with Ted. Think a week or 2 before one of the other 330s they operated had a heavy landing and was in for checks.

As always, awesome video Simon! I really miss the US Airways A330's with the PW engines in Manchester, man I loved that era so much. I think I've watched your "Smoothest Landing? US Airways Airbus A330" about a thousand times. Is there any chance you have some old footage of US Airways' A330 with the old livery?
