Virgin Atlantic Have the Friendliest Pilots!!

In this upload we capture one of my friends flying the awesome Virgin Atlantic A330-300 departing Manchester Airport for Magical Orlando with lots of passengers onboard waiting to see the Mickey Mouse at Disney, Universal Studios and other amazing fun locations. As he's such a legend we are lucky enough to get an amazing greeting as they way to enter the runway and we get up close with the flight deck as it departs gracefully off runway 23L. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did making it!! I mean we loved this departure so much we ignored the Emirates A380 arrival lol.

Information about Manchester Airport:
Situated in the North West of England Manchester Airport is a popular choice for holiday makers and business travelers alike. As plane spotters we get treated to many different airlines and aircraft with the amazing ability to see them up close at many locations including Southside, the runway visitor park, the airport pub and many more. We see it all from the Emirates A380 take off to Ryanair landings (you can decide if they're hard landings!). Tnere are few other airports where you can get up close and see inside the cockpit of Etihad airways or a British Aiways A320 all in the space of one morning.
