Manchester Airport Memories - 1990s Part.1

[@bmused55]

Good old days, where 757s were as common as the A320 is today! Loved that shot of two Air 2000 757s taxiing and one peeled off to an earlier runway entry.

Great video, so many memories of airlines and aircraft types that don't exist today. Thank you for sharing.

[@randalpmcmurphy1340]

Excellent video. Some great old liveries, Air Canada, Aer Lingus, Delta, Cathay Pacific. Old airlines, Britannia, Air 2000, Air UK, British World. And of course, the old Landor livery.

[@Jamlidd]

Fantastic clips! Thanks for uploading, great to see BA's old colours.

Back when my dad worked behind the bar in the T1 executive lounge before i was born.

[@peterfinn6098]

Excellent clip and happy memories, like deja vu. I remember that late morning line up very well and spent many days in that pub garden as a child with my Flightcheck booklet wishing I could fly on one of those jumbo jets and legacy carriers somewhere, instead of the UK charters lol although Air 2000 were excellent in the earlier years they were formed. I think we received a bucks fizz before breakfast and a menu card was given out with the meal service! How times have changed

[@aviationdhuk]

The AA 767 N316AA is still flying to this day with ATI Air transport international and she is 36 years old!

[@trevorcrowther5430]

Good stuff.

[@styal5]

Taylor - I don't, unfortunately, have exact dates on these clips but it would either have been to Los Angeles or New York.

[@nudgenudgewinkwink3212]

Me and my family flew to reus on a brittania 767 in 88 just like that one.

[@michaelearith3184]

Mark , This Will Have Been Somewhere Between 1990 and 1994 As the Cathay 744 was with the Union Jack on its tail(probable via Frankfurt days) and Qantas (via Heathrow,Bangkok and Melbourne ,Outbound only Inbound was via Singapore)ceased flying direct from Manchester at the end of 1994.

[@Clipper1094]

You are absolutely correct. The American 767 in this video N379AA was delivered in early 1993.

[@peterfinn6098]

I reckon 92-94 since Delta started flying June 91 with a 767-300 then moved to Tristar and sometimes A310 there-afterwards and if the QF stopped after Codeshare with BA in 94, so perhaps 93 if that AA 763 was delivered that year too

[@stuartwalters4784]

I’ve been told that that ATP is still trying to reach V1 today….

[@j.collett2364]

Man, the number of RB211's in this video. B744, L-1011, 757 etc.

[@ChrisZoomER]

"Hey Chris, remember the old AA 767s?" "Um.... [sighs] yeah." "Memories right? LOL!" "yeah T_T"

[@aviationfan997]

That bad boy at 7:10 is heading to Kai Tak!

[@alyssaboyett9182]

There’s an old American Airlines Boeing 767 livery colors departing to Chicago-O’Hare.

[@MetroCammellDMUs]

Do you know Where the BA 767 was going to? asking because I went on a BA 767 back in 93-94 to LA direct from Manchester. I was about 10 or 11 years old at the time

[@djiwebster1]

BA used to operate MAN-JFK on the B767; also BHX-JFK, GLA-JFK using B757 and B767's

[@GaryPotocki82]

We're practically the same age I flew SAS from Seattle to Copenhagen round trip on a Boeing 767 300 series in oct of 93 Miss them good oleDays

[@GaryPotocki82]

Why was Qantas and Ba the only ones who acquired the RR power plant option on the their 767s?

[@matthewcorcoran2891]

It was BA and China Yunnan Airlines who were the only airlines who ordered the RR powered Boeing 767-300’s. Qantas inherited theirs of BA when in the early 2000’s they leased them off British Airways, and later purchased them outright. China Yunnan Airlines was purchased by China Eastern Airlines in 2003, and China Eastern inherited their Boeing 767-300’s.

[@allthestroke88]

How are everybody's ear drums?

[@flyc3]

Anyone else notice anything Airbus related.....Boeing appeared to be the dominant manufacturer.

[@N330AA]

Did Cathay fly direct to Hong Kong or did it stop in London?

[@styal5]

They flew via Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Zurich.

[@michaelearith3184]

@@styal5 Also Paris CDG as CX 260 3 x a week on Tue,Thur and Sun) with the Amsterdam route being CX 270 4 x a week (Mon,Wed,Fri and Sat),the Zurich Routing was CX 290 on days when it used to route via Frankfurt as CX 288 before that routing was dropped in 1994 and replaced with Zurich (Don't Know the reason why,since it was popular with TAS members for trips),there was a possibility of CX292 to Rome FCO (in lieu of some CDG CX260 flights)being extended to MAN but that didn't come to fruition. The Saturday service was at ALL times via Schiphol as CX 270.

Back when the A310 was still around…
