One of the best evenings plane spotting ever. There was a surreal feel in the air and it was an evening I won't forget.
I've uploaded a couple of videos from this trip last year but I purposely left you waiting for the best videos, and now they're here. East Midlands Airport (EMA/EGNX) is a big cargo airport in the UK, with numerous cargo flights arriving every evening, and then departing in the morning. So when my Dad and I went up to East Mids on the 20th/21st July 2013, we got the evening arrivals, spotting from about 16:00 until 21:30, then got the early morning departures from about 05:00 to 06:30.
MORNING DEPARTURES 👉 • East Midlands - Mornin... 😍
All the cargo flights arrive within a couple of hours, making filming there really exciting! During the evening hours East Midlands gets hectic, with tens of flights arriving and many wanting to depart too. We absolutely loved it, and seeing as this was filmed back in Summer 2013, we are looking to go back soon!
This video begins as I typically like to start them, with a nice intro including a view of the spotting location in which all the clips were filmed.
Then straight into the cargo landings! - :
UPS 767-300
Jet2 737-300
Swiftair EMB120
Star Air Maersk 767-200
Icelandair Cargo 757-200
Star Air Maersk 767-200
Atlantic Airlines BAE ATP
DHL A300-600
TNT 737-400
DHL 757-200
DHL A300-600 (Retro Livery); the last arrival we caught before heading back because the lighting was deteriorating, 21:30pm. There wasn't much special that we hadn't already filmed after this arrival anyway:)
The brilliant variety of airlines and aircraft we saw on this trip, plus the all around epic spotting location meant East Midlands is a must re-visit in our eyes.
