Forum rules
 | This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

Re: Manchester 17-1-2011
Thanks everybody, we had a great day.
We only went to the top of the car park and the Aviation viewing park.
Next time we'll also go to the other spots at the hotel and the other side of the runways.
We had no idea what was coming or going that day so we stayed at one spot so we wouldn't miss anything.

Re: Manchester 17-1-2011
I meant the other side of the airport indeed, not the hotel where you need a something to look over the fence. The other side, along the runway is one of the most amazing spots I have ever been to.. you are so close to the departure that you can feel the sound even when a small jet departs..furthermore you don't have fences around there.. that's quite nice I think..
Oh and the light is in your back from let's say 06.00-12.00..

Ok thanks, me and 2 friends are going there in May for 3 days. Staying in the airport hotel I think it's just a short walk. Looking forward to it!

Re: Manchester 17-1-2011
If you go to the other side, that's really worth it till noon, you have to rent a car as it's quite a distance to walk..Maikel van der Heijden wrote:Ok thanks, me and 2 friends are going there in May for 3 days. Staying in the airport hotel I think it's just a short walk. Looking forward to it!
