Information about Manchester Airport:
Situated in the North West of England Manchester Airport is a popular choice for holiday makers and business travelers alike. As plane spotters we get treated to many different airlines and aircraft with the amazing ability to see them up close at many locations including Southside, the runway visitor park, the airport pub and many more. We see it all from the Emirates A380 take off to Ryanair landings (you can decide if they're hard landings!). Tnere are few other airports where you can get up close and see inside the cockpit of Etihad airways or a British Aiways A320 all in the space of one morning. We are the best place to catch live arrivals and departures at Manchester Airport.

Well done Simon and Lizz. If any spotters are just starting up or interested this is a must watch and fantastic guide...
Thank you!! Hopefully people will find it useful 👌
Brilliant, thanks Lizz and Simon 👏🏼🥰
Remember to bring those wellies when going Manchester spotting😉 gets muddy on the mound!

Thank you so much! 😊
Absolutely fantastic and informative video Simon and lizz
Thank you we are so glad that you like it!! 😊
Lizz - that was BRILLIANT. It was informative (although you did fail to mention which location was the best for KFC-Cam), but there was something different about it I was trying to pin down...
Then it hit me - How on earth did you keep Simon silent throughout the whole video? Was it tape across his mouth? Did he have a sore throat? Or did he not bother turning up for this?
Or was he so busy doing all those excellent panning shots that he simply forgot to speak?
Thank you both for entertaining us over the last year.
Thank you David we are so glad that you liked it!! The reason that I was so quiet was that I knew how much editing this upload needed and I was have a breakdown behind the camera lol

This is a cool, informative guide. Thank you and well done. Deffo need to save this video somewhere for future reference. I don't think I'll have any parking issues cycling down, though, eh? lol :-)

Great information thank you. I’ve subbed :)

Well done buddy 👏

Very informative video. Lots of good spotting locations there, but the thing I’ve taken away the most is Lizz’s wonky ring finger!!!
Thanks! And yes, it's been like that for years now so I don't really notice it anymore
