Heathrow looks so diffrent now i was five years old when it was year 2000 Heathrow looks so diffrent from now which is 2010 it looks.... Older then terminal 5 was not in existence neither was the new 285ft control tower
I love theys type of videos 747-200/300 great plane always will be. but its sad to think that the 747 classics are slowly but surely going away as the 747-400 grows bigger and soon the 747-8 will be coming in if you agree with this comment and love the 747 classics plz respond by the way great video 5 STARS. plus i subscribe to you plz post more stuff like this
The spectators area is no longer open, as Heathrow grew the spectator area shrunk, this video is a bit of history, you wont be able to view aircraft from the roof of a UK airport ever again.
Looking again on this video is awesome. Love watching it every time. I wish I could visit Heathrow again, and all those beautfiul 747s. I wish they would never be replaced, it is the jumbo I will always love - spesh in the Qantas, BA and Virgin liveries :) Cheers again mate!
translift, yes, it's probably a 747-200, rarely do you see them except as cargo haulers. Cool video especially those 744's(747-400's)and the Concorde. I can't flightspot here in the states thanks to terrorists :( I used to be able to go to both Newark and Philly when someone I knew was flying out of there.
Manchester is a great place for spotters and the amount of aircraft that they have been reciving is great such as PIA 777 and many more! I'll always love Heathrow though, I only live 20 minutes away.
When I was a kid my Dad took me a couple of times and as a teenager I popped along to check out what was going on, the facilities got worse on each visit, with air conditoners and other support equipment for the airport taking up all the roof space.
Thank goodness for the Manchester Airport spectator area, they really get what it's all about.

The United 744 is the old 'greyscale' United livery. I think UAL now uses blue and white on its airplanes.
