Manchester Airport (EGCC) 30th April-3rd May
« on: May 04, 2014, 11:41:11 PM »
Having been 3 years since my last visit, and with the girlfriend flying through MAN on a connecting flight, I took the opportunity to fly across and spend a few days at Manchester Airport. The weather wasn't ideal for the first 2 days however on the final day, the Saturday morning, we were lucky to get a crisp clear morning and a rare visitor from a UAE A330 tanker.

Cracking shots Dave-the flex on the B787 wing is spectacular. 8)

Thanks Angry, yes, the curve of the 787 wing is spectacular, especially during departure. Thomson have one based there each day, unfortunately I only saw the same one, G-TUID, every day. At least I have pictures of it from 10 different angles.  8)  Manchester is a great airport for photography, so many great spots to take images from.
