Assuming it’s a sunny day where you are, what’s out of your window?

Air France 747 for me, going to Mexico

Residents of Hounslow/Slough need not apply…

hardly out of my window, nearest is a Bristows Eurocopter leaving Dyce.

that’s about 65 – 70 miles away..
oh, there’s a 787 LHR to Austin, maybe only 90 miles away

That’s ace!

BAE Jetstream.

How do I find it’s destination?

EDIT: Oooooohhh, no it’s a Reims Cessna F406 Caravan II.

Everything taking off from Frankfurt runway 18

A380s are the ones that don’t climb as high as all the others.

Fun watching the plane that a friend or family member is on, en route to Johannesburg. Especially when the real-time live track ends abruptly over Libya 😉

My thread, my rules… 😉

You’ve got to be able to see it in order to ask the question “I wonder where they’re going”. I always did that when I was a kid watching the 747s, DC-10s etc going overhead at 30,000ft. Flippin clever internet sorts that.

Paris – Leeds flight over the Peak District. That’s my nearest

BA A319, Gatwick – Verona

Couple coming into Bham from Dublin and Edinburgh but this one is my fave for today….I think he might be lost?

Dublin-London City

I think I have just seen the same plane coming overhead here!

Paris CDG to Mexico City?

I can see the little Fokker!

😆

Always interesting stuff coming OTT from where I am in Belfast. Atlantic entry waypoints not far from here. Currently nothing as the morning rush has ended. Quite enjoy tuning into 129.100 and listening in.

I play this, but from the beach with ships.

I just found a Cessna over the UK from Genoa, Italy… They must be mad!

Topgear race re-run?

Ha that’s ace, I’m addicted

MLAT plotting is interesting now, and if you know where to look you can pick up some interesting military stuff.

Paris – Edinburgh Boeing 737

that Air France 747 to Mexico, now about 120 miles W of me..

Dublin – Aberdeen, Aer Lingus ATR 72-600 currently at 21000feet doing 305 knots/. ETA 1530. 158km to destination.

Currently about 9 miles NE of me.

As above I have this

I win the award for most glamorous. eastern airways, darlington to Aberdeen…

oh, my mate’s a pilot on Eastern, he’s often on the glamorous routes, Shetland, Newquay, Southampton.. 🙂

Was also fun watching it when there was the ash cloud from that unpronouncable Icelandic volcano.
Some quite interesting flight patterns by the few planes circling outside the restricted zone, awaiting permission to land at LHR.

Wonder if the one over Brum is something for Google Maps/Bing Maps taking photos

Nearest to me is Brussels Airways BEL1SA. It always amazes me just how many aircraft are over our little island at one time!

Cheers,
Jamie

MLAT aircraft passing 4 mi to E. Obscured by snow…

hot_fiat i love you, i’ve always wanted to know what’s moored at the mouth of the Tyne, there’s always at least 3 ships

It doesn’t seem to be listed, extraordinary rendition?

I’ve always wanted to know what’s moored at the mouth of the Tyne

Its usually either the streamlined Nissan ships, or dodgy Chinese coal-laden bulk carriers bringing coals to newcastle.

absolutely everything that flys in or out of aberdeen passes my window.

i work next to the runway at dyce.

at home – i am flightpath for approach on northerly wind days.

and the nearest to my house are the sunday hobby helicopter pilots from the helipad.

Someone with skills of a programmer could turn this into a game of top trumps. In which case:

Bigger, higher, faster, more exciting destination. I win.

Equally shitty service.

We get some of the transatlantic ones over our house – we have flown over it loads on the way to Chicago – but not only.

A Ryanair 737 from Paris to Edinburgh, as I speak.

Seriously geeky..

… 😀 my copy has downloaded now

I am in my brother in laws house in Barnes the planes landing at Heathrow go straight over his roof and put their landing lights on as they do I can’t type fast enough to give a current post. But there is a shed load of them. We sleep in the attic so I will have a full night of them bar about 4 hours. Flight radar is Fab.

bloody hell – look at the number of planes in the air over the US!
