I once flew into here with a 100mph crosswind around the rock. Needless to say we spent the night in tangier.

@rodjames98 I've made the trip many times but not yet been diverted, I quite fancy a trip to Tangier.

landing on runway 09 is the best

@Skybluesam94 Runway 27 is the one in the video, i've been there a few times but never on 09, i'm out there again soon hopefully i'll get lucky and get a video of 09.

@gusandali Heavy by Gatwick standards.

@Bezwaldo1 It always amazes me how they manage to stop in time. They must have big plans for the Airport as a new terminal is under construction.

[rodjames98]

@kksf9018 Yeah its just pot luck really? it was in january way back in 1987 I think? it was a britannia 737/200, and we made 3 attempts to land, on the 3rd the captain decided it was too dangerous and diverted to tangier. Holiday memories that tend to stick with you forever.
