October 14, 201213 yr Hi folks, Today i was spotting at heathrow and a QANTAS Boeing 747-400 Came in, what is onw quite rare with all the A380'. The Aircraft was a charter and had originated in Frankfurt Here are some images!!! -ANDY GREENFlight Diary Account : http://flightdiary.net/SpeedBird7735 Hours experience in Grob 115, 30 minutes in Grob 102 10 Hours in Grob 109 PLUS SOLO! 23rd November 2013!
October 14, 201213 yr Soon those 747's will most likely only be seen flying the charter routes to Antarctica. They are expanding those sight seeing flights to Auckland now as well. Matthew Kane I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me
October 14, 201213 yr Sightseeing flights to Auckland?? Couldn't help myself. A coincidence, as this morning I saw my first a380 (non-airshow) and at first in the corner of my eye I thought 'theres a large plane about to stall!' it was going seriously slow in our strong winds. Something so large going so slow, incredible stuff. Simmo W, Melbourne, Ozhttp://www.youtube.com/user/id5556

If they still fly, thats good enough! Sightseeing flights to Auckland?? Couldn't help myself.

Something so large going so slow, incredible stuff. Awesome! -ANDY GREENFlight Diary Account : http://flightdiary.net/SpeedBird7735 Hours experience in Grob 115, 30 minutes in Grob 102 10 Hours in Grob 109 PLUS SOLO! 23rd November 2013!

Something so large going so slow, incredible stuff. The A380 looks like it's going too slow, because it's so big! I see them come in over London regularly, and they seem so stately, more like an airship than an aeroplane. For me it has that Concorde effect - you have to look up, although being so quiet you've a lot more chance of being surprised by it. Just love that aircraft... Ian
