Early Morning Arrivals | Heathrow Airport

[bensflights]

Hi, what cam do you use, please? Even at low setting they look HD. This is difficult to achieve on youtube. Is there a technique you use?

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@bensflights This is my old Camera the Sony HX1.

[HartsfieldSpotting]

Awesome!! I subbed! Sub back??

[sid4life123]

what a busy airport

[silveradofilms]

When I see the various Middle Eastern airlines landing I think, nice plane but shame Arabs are here. (joke)

[speedbird188]

that virgin 346 @ 3:46 was a lot quieter than the ba 777 don't you think? :P (and awesome video btw. ;))

[Cabincrewifly]

Wow you were lucky to see the Royal Brunei

[damroc41]

I was on the first plane to arrive at Heathrow last year from New York on about 23rd September (which in turn was from Nashville - you can't get a direct flight). We had to circle a few times to kill time, because the pilot said that planes are not allowed to land before 6:00am! I didn't know that.

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@250Trojan This was between 5-6am. The first Flight is scheduled to land at 4:50am (BAW12 from Singapore). There are no departures before 6:00am. You most likely got put in a Hold due to Traffic congestion on the Approach.

[250Trojan]

@HeathrowSpottingHD I can understand no depatures before 6.00am because it's so unbelievably noisy when they take off (this is coming from somene who doesn;t see planes very often, so Heathrow is pretty amazing when arriving there on the perimiter road).

But the pilot did say there were no landings before 6.00am and he did say we were the first to land (at about 6.05am) and other planes were circling behind us (he pointed them out through the windows).

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@250Trojan Found out between 0430z-0600z there is limited slots and arrivals in LHR so that would be the reason why!

[Lampa15CA]

Ah cant wait summer for farnborough airshow and then going spotting :)

[timsmail24487]

Zoom out FFS

[xXiMoDmYiPoDXx]

My future dream job! :)



[MidgetSmall]

Addictive, I'm going to watch all of your videos man! :D! Very Relaxing

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@MidgetSmall hehe thanks!

[ImpactByEclipse]

YAYYY RBA (Royal Brunei Airlines)!!!! it sucks.

[ewooll]

I can remember one weekend seeing the last plane land one night and being back there in the freezing cold to see the early morning arrivals These days I am lucky to fly to Bangkok every year and I always get to LHR a few hours early and watch the heavy metal come in over Hatton Cross. It's a great free hobby and only the travelling was a pain. My favourite spot was seeing them take from the perimiter road near Bath Road, used to get goose bumps. Thanks for the video. Great quality and action.

[yamaotostrike]

is this plane spotting being done from bath road? awesome stuff. cheers for nice vid.

[justadroid]

I stayed in a Hotel in London earlier this year, I was right under the approach path, I timed 1min 20 secs between aircraft, a constant stream of heavies! Was great to watch! nice vid!

[tigerek12]

Very nice!



[deadman568]

Where abouts are you standing? , Im a fond plane spotter myself :)

[LAKOPUNJABI]

wow i love early morning flights!! esp when you take off during early hours, best part of being at a airport

[MrNazhef2311]

I watched this video everyday.. it's so relaxing.. thanks for upload this on youtube :)

[latenightreveler]

I love how you can get so close to the runway at heathrow. Great video, keep em coming.

[avcomth]

90% of early morning arrivals are heavy jets completing it's transcontinental flights. Pretty neat for most airlines to arrange their flight to make passengers get up just in time to reach their destination.

[santacruz252]

anyone else find this really relaxing?

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@santacruz252 That's what I was going for!

[germangomeza340]

@santacruz252 sii bastante jeje



[halofan650]

What is that plane called at 3:44

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@halofan650 That is a Virgin Atlantic Airbus A340-600

[TheZoom54]

Wow what camera did you use it was very nice

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@TheZoom54 Thanks. Sony HX1. Outdated now I currently use the HX100V. Alright for night time shooting

[ogrebattle22763]

I really enjoyed flying British Airways all 4 times I've flown them.... Excellent pilots also...

[tjf4375]

Very nice video, sharp and well lit footage - one thing I would say is I don't agree that the police hate enthusiasts at LHR - I've never had any trouble from them at all - they do ask that people stay away from the perimeter fences but other than that they don't seem to mind at all, and in my experience they seem very accommodating.

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@tjf4375 Thanks! Well you obviously haven't spent the amount of time over Heathrow I have to realise it. Not saying every single Officer does dislike us but most do as they think we're a danger to security.

[bk117KI]

beautiful



[FarnboroughTAXI]

Which terminal is this? Thanks for sharing --

Appreciation from Dinez taxi and Private Car Hire in Farnborough

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@FarnboroughTAXI Terminal? This was shot from the Heathrow Academy Car Park which I don't really recommend. For 27R Arrivals like here I suggest parking where I'm stood (Around 2 pounds for a couple of hours) then walk down the perimeter fence to the roundabout. The Aircraft will fly over head or you can walk a little more for some side shots. Cheers

[hassan5497]

VERY COOL ARI.



[leon6266]

qantas for ever

[chinglishgirl]

lol ive been on the plane at 2:08 :L small world lol

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

See new videos from 2011 Sunrise on the channel!

[photopuppet]

Great video, I like how clear the early morning filming is. Does your camera have CMOS sensor? Also, have you done any filming from the top of the car parks at all?

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@photopuppet Thanks. Yeah it does, just got my new camera which has CMOS R. It will autofocus better to lights in low light conditions. Shooting for my next Early Morning Arrivals video which will be 10x professionally filmed and produced. Nope as to stay you have to get lucky due to Police basically hate spotters at LHR.

[jackeybah123]

3 words...... get a tripod

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@jackeybah123 Here i was in my early stages of using a tripod.

[mymusic777ify]

a great video! i am a woman and i love planes and flying!! feel safer in the air than on the ground! i always ask for a window seat like to be close to the action,escpesially take-offs and departures! british airlines are great

[mauman707ec]

@mymusic777ify finaly found a girl who loves aviation .. damn u rock \m/

[runescapepure011]

Wow..The Quantas At the Start Had No Beacon Lights on, The Ba744 Onli Had The Left Landing Light On Aswell as the Malaysian

[pcfaulkner]

advert at the start so gooodbye

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@pcfaulkner You can skip it after 5 seconds..

[ncodrington]

@pcfaulkner how silly you sound

[pcfaulkner]

@ncodrington yes how silly, imagine that eh, making a comment yeah your right what a silly person i have been good point well made

[M1sterHamilton]

@pcfaulkner Would you rather pay 5 dollars for youtube a month?

[pcfaulkner]

@M1sterHamilton probably only a matter of time untill we do, however adverts bug the piss out of me so i had my say eh? i just hate ads thats all

[Bassbuilding]

Nice vid mate, how do you get to this location? where is nearest parking?

[airportfreak747]

why wasent there a 5:16

[keeprighton89]

@HeathrowSpottingHD not every technical fault is recorded on the flight computer especially lights!, after every flight the engineers will turn on anti-cols, strobes, taxi and landing lights do a walk round and find out that way, i see it day in day out, worse of a night when its unexpected and they switch em on a nd boy of the landing lights bright! :D

[sdgsdgsdgsd3]

I live on the south coast and where i used to live in Emsworth Near Portsmouth, sometimes in the morning aroud 5-6am you can hear the big jets coming in on the approach to Gatwick/Heathrow. And on some clear nights in the summer u can see them flying over on the approach

[keeyanwest1981]

nice videos!! i think malaysian air should replace their busted lamps,,hehehe

[bigwill619]

@HeathrowSpottingHD they wouldn't know if its out unless they where outside of the plane

[bigwill619]

at 1:06 i think they need a new light on the left

[flynabilx]

@bigwill619 or the pilots just forgot to turn these lights on.

[joecoool50]

OMG! If you uploaded this video the same day you filmed it, I was was on that Royal Brunei 777 :D at 1:42

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@joecoool50 Yeah the video was made and uploaded the day, awesome.

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@RichL2009 Yep, it's honestly the best time to go, 5am-1am is normaly the peak times but at LHR if you want to go see the A380s in the evening SQ,EK both land around 7pm and takeoff at 9-10pm and everyother day the QF dosent take of untill 10pm two!

[ricka006]

@HeathrowSpottingHD do you mean 11am, as heathrow wouldnt be that busy at 1 am would it :)

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@ricka006 Heathrow is busy 24/7 :| but has an hour where it's busy of A320s and the odd 767/777

[charlieiscool1000]

undercarriage came down ruther late on the last 747

[Starboard76]

Nicely done..the start of this show, the new kid on the block..the Royal Brunei 777! Good to see a nice shot of that new 777 operators.

Next, you Heathrow guys have have gotta nail that Biman 777 that's been there for quite some time!

Great job Heathrowspotting!

[mrnnone]

love Royal Brunei

[stevop21]

Nice footage, I love early morning arrivals! I didn't know BR now fle the 777 to LHR. On the 2nd aircraft it seems as if the starboard landing lights are not working

[Vaulner]

Is this Myrtle Avenue?

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@Vaulner Nope Myrtle Ave is 27L which is more outside the airport, this is filmed by the Marriot Hotel or if you no heathrow for a couple years the ' Visitors Centre '

[Vaulner]

@HeathrowSpottingHD I haven't gone to Heathrow, I expect to go soon to do some spotting, I have heard that Myrtle Ave is very accesible, so I suppose that I will go there. Thanks for your help

[remkef22]

really an amazing video, I love it!

[videoguy1motion]

Quite early! Qantas 747 comin in from singapore i guess?

[sealalula]

Great spot !

[Guydabest]

I remember you said that normally your mum comes down with you? Must have had a hard time convincing her :P I want to go spot sometime at heathrow, and like you I live real close, like 30 minutes drive away.

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@Guydabest Yeah otherwise it's a bus with something 1,000£+ of equipment when i take my macbook so. Nope asked and she was asleep in the car hehe, nah in the morning it took 10 usally 15.

[Guydabest]

@HeathrowSpottingHD Why do you bring your macbook? And also, how do you get the ATC quality so good on this video? Thanks :D

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@Guydabest Had all the arrivals on word and my printer screwed up and i wanted to no what was coming in so early :)

umm cliped it to my hoody like at the top so right next to my mic. wish i could plug it in but sadly my camera dosent have any ports.. only HDMI and to connect to computer =/

[TDPUK]

I haven't been to Heathrow in ages cost's £26 for a train ticket, and i only live 25 miles away! Pay for my ticket : )?

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@TDPUK Lol, get a job then a car, then you can go more than you can wish for!

I only really go a hour a day when i go as i live 15 minutes away.

[moviesunrated]

It's always early in the morning that a lot of big planes come to land at Heathrow. Sometimes I've woken up at like 6AM and looked out my window, and seen about 10 747's landing in a row, sadly I wont be waking up at about 6AM for a long while, as I'm a teen and can only get up at about 9:30AM, no earlier, it's to do with puberty and teenagers body clocks being reset at about this time.

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@moviesunrated ok thanks for the information :|

I'm 15 and i can easyly stay up 2-3 days in a row, summer if i have nothing planned i go bed around 5 and wake up 2-3 lol

[dreamliner7]

Nice one!

[phantomworks23]

I saw that Virgin Atlantic A346 with the white engine cowling the other day at Sydney Airport :)

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@phantomworks23 It came from SYD this morning hehe

[phantomworks23]

@HeathrowSpottingHD oh :) Must be on that route atm, thats good, its a littel different so thats always good !

[MandeepGadgetBoy]

Dude like how do you wake up so early and goto Heathrow to film! :)

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@MandeepGadgetBoy Nope i dont go bed if i go this early lol

[MandeepGadgetBoy]

@HeathrowSpottingHD ah right k :)

[TheSaadAhmed125]

Brunei is such a nice livery!

[DeltaAirtran]

I want to go to London so bad!!!!!! This reminds me of New York JFK. Awesome video and thumbs up!!! :D

[OTISElevator500]

Awesome video! I love early morning flights. ^_^

[pilotanthony]

dudeee why didn't you record the A380 touch down you can see it at 1:39

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@pilotanthony I did but going to upload it in another project :) or on it's own not 100% sure yet

[pilotanthony]

@HeathrowSpottingHD ohh gooood!!! cant wait to see thattt!!!

[AirBerlin320]

I love these videos so much!

Thumbs up! and Favo! for the awesome quality!

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@turwestonpilot Thanks means alot! hehe well i did't go to bed just when i got home

[MrTrekster123]

Getting better with the tripod :)

That MH 74 seemed to put its gear down very late didn't it!.

Nice vids as always, keep an eye out for a guy with a cam when going past myrtle or the Ren

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@MrTrekster123 Cheers!

Yeah, first time i have seen a heavy put it's gear down after the Landing Clearance.

Next time i'm filming will be monday morning (11ish-1ish) at 27L for Landings

[MrTrekster123]

@HeathrowSpottingHD

Don't think I have seen it that late before either. I may just make it over,kindly been given a day off and could do with a bit of spotting, been a while.

[773ER14]

Seems like the Speedbird at 01:08 has a broken landing light?

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@773ER14 Seems to be, i thought it was kind of fishy them not putting Left & Right inbound and outbound lights on!

[MrTrekster123]

@773ER14 You see that quiet a bit actually. A lot of 320s seem to have 1 light out

[pilotanthony]

@773ER14 same with the Malaysia 744 the same light is out awell weird!

[Jett203]

Great shots! Love the Brunei Triple, I just missed one of their 767s when I went down in June.

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@Jett203 Cheers! Yeah i was expecting a BA772 as i missed the ATC clearance but was good to film something different hehe.

[BringEllisTheHoriZon]

you should do a time lapse of the view at 4:30

you seem to have mastered the new tripod :)

[HeathrowSpottingHD]

@BringEllisTheHoriZon Nope, when i do my timelpase it will put it up against the approach lights of a runway. Thanks yeah getting to no it a bit more ;)

[BringEllisTheHoriZon]

@HeathrowSpottingHD near the bus station?
