Nice video, Ladybird was my first Virgin 747 flight between Manchester and JFK and Tinker Belle was my last, but I did manage to buy the lifejacket from underneath the seat on my last flight (64a) from eCube, it's a shame these glamorous ladies were retired way before there time, thanks for sharing! 👍

[@BradleyPennyAviation]

Thank you ever so much for your comment! Wow that’s incredible, I’m glad you had the chance to fly on one! Take care!

Fantastic footage of this beauty. Sad day, but amazing to be able to see her fly one last time. Well done Bradley, another awesome video ✈🛩✈🛩✈🛩

[@BradleyPennyAviation]

Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it Michelle! very sad day!

[@carolynrichardson5096]

Brilliant footage Bradley. Really great shot to see the men fitting the tow bar - shows the size of the tyres. Well done!

[@BradleyPennyAviation]

Thanks so much Carolyn! I filmed off of my camera today and to me it looks a lot better!

[@carolynrichardson5096]

@@BradleyPennyAviation Yes, it's certainly better than mobile I think. My brother Chris saw this flying really low over their house, before landing at St Athan, which is about 10 minutes away.

Great share, so sad to see the end of these beautiful planes. I was lucky to film one briefly flying near me on its final approach to the cotswold airport the last month. I’d love to watch one from an airport though, that would be awesome. 👍🏻👍🏻

Awesome mate! I was there for the Corsair 747s as well! Glad you enjoyed mate! take care!

Hi Brad.It was great to see G-VAST depart on her final flight and then for you to catch the final landing at St.Athan, it reminded me of Kemble and may I say you were in the perfect spot.A shame about the wind but at least it was dry.Thanks for sharing Brad,lets see your subs head for 500 pretty soon.Chris

[@BradleyPennyAviation]

PHANTOM DROPHEAD Thanks so much Chris! It really does remind me of Kemble! Well a mini version! It took me a while to find the spot! It was extremely windy! I almost fell if my car! Hopefully I get to 500 soon! Take care Chris! I’m glad you enjoyed the video mate!

Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed! What a landing! Thanks for watching!

[@goldenkoi23]

I don’t think the front gear did bounce. Did you see the take off from Manchester? As it took off it did a wing wave so I think when it lands it’s like a little ‘bow’. Just before the gear goes to touch he picks the nose back up then I’m pretty sure he holds for a few seconds on purpose. I have no idea for sure, just a hunch going by the deliberate wing wave on take off.

[@BradleyPennyAviation]

It was a tiny bounce! I was watching the BIG JET TV stream! It seams at though that happened! The wing wave was really cool! Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed the video!
