Landing at London Stansted airport - view from the cockpit

[TheAbsta123]

I hate flying back home after being abroad. I like the flight (if its not really bumpy) I just hate that we're leaving the good weather and coming back to rain and icy cold weather :( :( lol

@EinkOLED keep your views to yourself if theyre likiely to offend people please, i love england its where i was born, live and plan to live in the future. if you think london is all we have to show you are incredibly narrow minded, and yes, our economy may be behind germany's, but germany is an industrial nation, britain is a finanacial nation, the recovery rates will vary dramatically!

Always fly from Stansted, its a good airport :)

[Verderer]

No matter where in the world I've been to and returning from there is nothing that quite compares with, for sheer pleasure, the sight of home coming into view down there from the plane.......England!

[Verderer]

I always enjoy flying back into my country the UK after being abroad...if the weather is clear it's a wonderul experience and it's so nice to see all the familar things of England again...the beautiful greenery of the countryside, the villages and country mansions and even castle sometimes...and...most significantly....the traffic down there on the roads and motorways driving on the LEFT hand side! A sure sign of being back home in England again if ever there was one!

[jimmy2500]

During World War II Stansted Airfield was used by the Royal Air Force and the United States Army Air Force as a bomber airfield. Stansted was first allocated to the USAAF Eighth Air Force in August 1942 as a bomber airfield. The united States Army 817th, 825th and 850th Engineering Battalions, completd the airfield by mid-1943.

how did you get to the copkit?

[Hangar35]

The aircraft *is* a Boeing 737 - I was there at the pointy end when this was taken !

[mattwilby2807]

how did you get IN the cockpit?

[marcuss91919]

A crosswind runway is a normal runway but is built so if the main runway(s) crosswind is to strong and dangerous, then the plane can land on the crosswind runway which is safer. At heathrow u have the 2 main runways, and one CW runway crossing the 2 at the end of the airfield. Its hardly used tho. hope tht made sense :S

[gregorymahony]

nice!

[marcuss91919]

stansted has 1 runway and isn't very big, heathrow has 2 main runways, 1 crosswind runway and its about triple the size of stansted and it has bout 1200 flights a day....great video!!

[timothyngim]

Whats a "crosswind runway"?

[timothyngim]

Very nice!! Btw, what's the difference between London Stansted and Heathrow? And what aircraft is that?

[tjf4375]

Yes was gonna say quite a big difference! The Government has got big plans for Stansted tho, much to the dismay of local residents....

I think the plane could be a BAE146, or maybe a Fokker, but it certainly isn't a Boeing or Airbus because I don't recognise the callouts

[timothyngim]

Dunno, the callouts sound like a Boeing to me

[bixlerscott]

Very nice!  Can you do more of these?

[sonicwurst]

nice
