Tribute to the SAS MD-82

Tribute to the SAS MD-82
A familiar sight at Birmingham Airport, the last of these old jets in SAS (Scandinavian Airlines) service is due to be withdrawn in a few days at the end October 2013, so I've put together some shots taken at BHX/EGBB during 2013 as a video farewell.

The basic design started way back in the 1960's as the Douglas DC-9, moved into the 1980's as the McDonnell Douglas MD-80 family (like the remaining SAS MD-82 examples), and ended with the smaller, quieter Boeing 717 at the very end of the 1990's. So this month really does see the end of an era for SAS and probably for a number of airports served by SAS like Birmingham.

MUST SEE: MONARCH A320 AWFUL LANDING IN STRONG WINDS

MUST SEE: MONARCH A320 AWFUL LANDING IN STRONG WINDS
With Winds of up to speed 17 knots with gusts of 28 knots predicted, we weren't going to let the cold stop us going out and filming!

This was just one of tonnes of amazing crosswind videos I managed to get on the 15th of September 2013 on a trip to Birmingham International Airport. This Monarch A320-214 had a lot of difficulty getting down safely on runway 15 at BHX/EGBB. Firstly, he seemed to misjudge the flare, it appears the pilot overestimated the weight of the aircraft for the speed he was going. He then brings it down, but then appears to hit wind shear and ends up touching down on one wheel. After bouncing back up, he makes the decision to get the Airbus A320 down on the ground instead of a go around. Finally, half way down the runway, and way off centreline, he brings it down. Slamming on the brakes and applying full reverse thrust, he somehow manages to stop well in time and vacate with taxiway C.

This was filmed from Sheldon Country Park on the 15th of September 2013. The aicraft arrived at around 11:30am. I went to Birmingham Airport on a spotting trip with my mate Will, check out his channel here: www.youtube.com/bristolcardifairport

VERY BAD LANDING: Monarch Airbus A320 Strong Crosswind Arrival at Birmingham Airport (BHX-EGBB) *Watch in 1080p!* Competition Sound at the end
This video is of a very bad landing by a Monarch A320-214 at Birmingham Airport during heavy crosswinds. The winds were 230 at 16kt gusting 28kt on the METAR as we left. This aircraft is seen arriving from Dubrovnik in Croatia. Date Filmed: 15th September 2013. Reg: G-OZBW c/n;1571 I filmed this video from the Sheldon Country park at the ned of Runway 15. This could be classed as a bad landing, but really, the pilots did a good job in getting her down safely. But I suspect a few passengers on board wouldn't be too happy! This aircraft was built in 2001 but wasn't delivered to Monarch until 2012 from Thomson Airways. I went spotting with my great buddy Archie, subscribe to him here, http://www.youtube.com/user/Mraviationguy I hope you enjoyed and thanks for watching!

Shark-faced Antonov

Shark-faced Antonov
murky misty late afternoon at BHX was brightened by the arrival of this Bright Air Antonov AN-26 (LZ-ABR), sporting a shark's nose and a raven with skull on the tail. It went over to join another Antonov, an AN-12, on the cargo apron area.
Given the markings, maybe best not to enquire what it was carrying ;)
Additional info: This get up was applied specially for the film "The Expendables 3" - thanks to Youtube user CO27 for the info.
