Early Morning Arrivals - London Heathrow 2011

[@BlueStar167]

Nice compilation :) LHR in Summer morning is awesome... lots of heavies landing from all over the world.

[@HM99AA]

Very nice video! :-) Myrtle Ave is a real Mecca of all European plane spotters ;-) Thanks to your compilation, the planes and the blue sky I almost forgot how freezing it is outside ;-) 747 always and forever!

[@TubeAirways]

This video must have been a lot of work, but I can ashure you, it was worth it!!!!!!!! Perfect job!!!!

[@markosbasa]

exactly one year ago i was there arriving with british airways !! fantastic video !!!

[@ColinPrenger]

Gorgeous video, very well done. I've spotted there once when I visited last summer, you're lucky you get to be near it a lot. :)

[@mariodebontridder]

amazing spotvid!!!! well done friend!!

[@airbxnee]

At Heathrow it's probably between four to six miles separation. Controllers have standard vectors & speeds to final approach- so sometimes it's a little bit of a pattern for them at times.

[@FrankRayMrLin]

This is GREAT stuff!!! Some sound like "AIRWOLF!!!" :)

[@airfoxtrot2006]

Thats so cool liked and faved.

[@TheCardTrickKidz]

4:24 I love that view of the plane that is completley black and the sun, looks like an eclipse with a plane instead of the moon!

[@75mrmanutd]

Brilliant video

[@airbxnee]

Yep but people who don't know anything about Aviation don't understand. They only complain when they're holding for 30 minutes!

[@DanielSander]

Great vid

[@HM99AA]

@HeathrowSpottingHD Thank you for the explanation :-) Now i know a little bit more about aviation :-)

[@Gareth1111]

GREAT VIDEO, LOOKS LIKE YOU WAS AT MYRTLE AVENUE RUNWAY 27 LEFT, ITS A GOOD SPOT FOR PHOTOGRAPHY WHEN RUNWAY 27L IS USED FOR LANDING.

[@YANKYVICTOR]

NICE JOB!

[@HM99AA]

@HeathrowSpottingHD I was also impresed with the job of ATC. When i saw 20 planes in the schedule landing the same time i was thinking - how's that possible? ;-) I thought the Aircrafts get clearance to land when they are just before those yellow instalations ( markers ) but as you say they get it even later. Wow, knowing that i'm impressed even more.

[@airbxnee]

@deetjay1 Looks close right? On approach the speeds as mostly the same (160knts) until 4DME (4 Miles out). Normally 5 Miles or so between them. Heathrow Director does a fantastic job separating everyone! It's a pattern, which you'd see if you watched the Radar for a good 30 minutes or so. A lot of the times Aircraft don't get clearance to Land until just before hitting the perimeter fence which is a close call for a G/A.

[@airbxnee]

@HM99AA The Landing Clearance is never at a fixed place. Once the Aircraft just landed and gets handed over to Ground they normally give the next Aircraft Landing clearance which could be 1 or 9 miles out!

[@airbxnee]

Explain it better - there are 4 main ''Stacks (Holding Patterns)" around LHR for LHR which are Bovingdon(BNN), Biggin(BIG), Lambourne(LAM) & Ockham(OCK). You enter them prior to Final approach if the approach is too busy or you have a Landing Restriction time! You can get 5-10 Aircraft in one at a time at all different Flight Levels.

[@gloryths]

seriously when i fly to heathrow i am socked!! 4 aircrafts landing at the same time hahahahaha

[@airbxnee]

@BlueStar167 Yeah if I could drive I'd always be at LHR this early, it's great. I prefer Winter Light as it's more ''Golden'' but Sun doesn't come up until 8am some Months!

[@MrBryan86]

Nice!!

[@Jsijtsma]

This is such a great video! what camera do you use? Were they using the second runway for smaller planes like the 737?

[@mylesandkerria]

so 757s(united) are flyin 6 hours now....nice vid

[@airbxnee]

No 2012 version as I never filmed one, but I'm planning a very nice 2013 one :-)

[@miamidolphinfan1234]

yes

[@speedbird188]

it's myrtle avenue - the best place for watching landings on 27L thats not the cockpit. ;)

[@airbxnee]

@AviationColabs Cheers, in the cold in London? F*** that.

[@airbxnee]

@HM99AA Cheers! Yeah it's a great place but would be better without that Road in between the field and perimeter fence!

[@TrainNkill]

the a380 looks slow compared to the others

[@deadman568]

@HeathrowSpottingHD Where are you standing when the Airbus A380 flew over, and what time was this and was this also in the summer. Finally, If you could,can you give me any decent places to spot, because, I'm also a spotter:) Thanks

[@timberg427]

When come the arrivals of 2012?

[@tdgross2010]

did you film this at myrtle ave.

[@airbxnee]

@mimana2 I know some by their callsign's.

[@WorldEye88]

My friend, do you know where are they coming from? The airport they originated?

[@XxKIDtemperxX]

What time did the Qantas come it at?

[@HITMANKH100]

other planes were going in circles because they cant obviously land at the same time.....

[@miketheavgeek]

+1

[@MrBear1967]

where are u standing...?????

[@JSTONE9352]

Heathrow desperately needs a third runway for an airport that busy, it does not look like it will happen anytime soon as it is mired in environmental and political disputes.

[@airbxnee]

@deetjay1 Ok cool to know. Now go troll somewhere else.
