I TAKE IT FROM ALL THE COMMENTS HERE AIMED AT @DAVEWAVE57 THAT HE ASSUMES THAT GLASGOW AIPROT IS A HIILABILLY TWO BIT AIRPORT ??? IS HE FOR REAL ????AND IS HE SOOOO WRONG .
@davewave57 I'm a controller with NATS and have visited Glasgow ATC on numerous occasions and I can assure you they can take 747's, and do so on a regular basis during the summer. The TODA of runway 23 is 3090m and the max LDA is 2661 on Runway 05, more than enough for a 747-400. The runway could handle an A380 on the odd occasion as well. The problem with that is there are no stands big enough and the strength of the taxiways couldn't cope.
That day was mental. We left straight after the Emirates and by the time we got to the Loganair hanger where the car was (illegally) parked, we were like snowmen!
Haha me and my mate were standing at the mound just out of frame to the right at 8:23 when u filmed this. I think you can just see a wee figure on the mound (me) at the end when u zoom out as the Emirates rolls. haha. if i remember rightly, when the snow started (as the Emirates taxied) it didnt stop for another two weeks lol.
That's the Loganair hanger, you can park your car there (illegally), just watch out for the grumpy employee who spends all his time smoking at the side door and WILL CHIN you for parking there!
Wow a BA Boeing 747-400, 2 Emirates Boeing 777-300ER I have never seen 2 Emirates 777's in there before and a BA 747-400, where about do you stay in Scotland?

Not sure how to take such a ridiculous comment! Virgin put a 747 through GLA every weekend of the summer flying out to Orlando Florida.
