Working at Airbus Broughton I see the beluga daily and it still amazes me how elegant it is. Such a great moment for the people of LHR to see it up close and personal
Darn…I slept through my notification this morning!!! Thank you Jerry, Gilly for covering this for us sleepyheads that just can’t wake up on time!!! You two are the best…watching replay! 🇨🇦✈️👍
I am watching you now from West Virginia in the United States Nd I want to see the Beluga live its a rare opportunity for me to see this unique airplane and y am really excited to see this event!!!
1:52:00 I was waiting for you to mention HAM. I'm lucky enough to be a regular visitor to Hamburg and not only do you see the Belugas regularly, you're treated to countless 'undercoat green' freshly assembled aircraft taking off and landing at Airbus' assembly airport by the docks. In fact, such marvels are so regular that my little nephews there are as blasé about it as only ten year olds can be!
Usually larger aircraft such as A 380 B747 Beluga Antonov 124 are towed in close proximity to prevent any collision with obstacles. They won't drive, steer the big ones.
A BA source has said that an Airbus team was already onsite for the repairs. These will include structural repairs to the tail cone and APU area - so the parts delivered may be more than a simple stabiliser/elevator unit. And the work will take approximately two weeks.
Sheer coincidence. While I was on holiday in France last week, I saw one of the other Beluga XL aircraft flying near Saint Nazaire, I knew what it was immediately :)
I was on the A350 landing from YYZ at 10:01am BST @46:00. You can see the wings waving back and forth as the pilot appeared to be battling the gusty winds. Poor kid a couple of rows in front of me wasn’t able to hold onto his lunch.
"So that's what we're gonna do. Any questions? Oh, I forgot: Who's the guy that crashed into the plane in April? OK, you're not going near that thing mate."
I have now done a bit of , late , research. It’s quite a thing. I had never seen it before, didn’t know anything about it , obvs. Amazing plane, as are all the other working , not holiday , planes. Amazing.!!!!

As far as ugly planes go, the Beluga is a beauty! Thanks for the coverage 👍

@@7BJDX I live in Chester and I never tire of seeing them flying low over my home - especially coming in to land. A fabulous sight.

That was sooo good, fantastic. Thank you Jerry and Gilly for these additional shows, looking forward to the afternoon departure. 😊
Beverley George!!! You’re amazing…following your lead!
Interesting to see all the airport workers and service cars watching the arrival.
I'm glad they parked it there actually. As jerry said the police and security were worried about crowding. Good job lads :)

Great for you to see the beluga down south we see it flying over liverpool regularly still great to see it anytime 😊
Just watched the show, fabulous, love the Beluga, thankyou both so much for bringing it to us 🌈🥰
That coverage was sensational! 🤗🐋🐳
The fact that everyone including the pilots probably stopped and looked at the incredible aircraft ❤ wow 🤩
I just happened to randomly catch this video this afternoon. Thanks.

Great catch. Something we don't see everyday in LHR.
Interesting to see this unique a/c. Thanks for covering it.
Top work...very enjoyable. Thanks Jerry and Gilly as always.

I am lucky, I live about 4 miles from Hawarden where this plane comes in most weeks.
Sheer coincidence. While I was on holiday in France last week, I saw one of the other Beluga XL aircraft flying near Saint Nazaire, I knew what it was immediately :)
There's a bit at 1:48:25 where it sounded like a dolphin or whale sound. I'm wondering if that was deliberate! :D Great video!
Dat was a boydy
Well done Gerry and Gilly, great catch. So funny to see all the “yellow jackets” trying to get a photo of it, when they should be working 😊😂
I was watching the livrestream instead working.
Sorry boss :D
We all had a whale of a time today!🐳
Brilliant coverage, well done and thanks
Yeap….. and I was one of them Yellow Jackets 👋😂
Great coverage
Thanks
Off to LHR today! This video sets up the mood!
Beluga!
excellent, what's not to love

What a beauty
Team replay ❤
Not surprised it needs those outboard rudder surfaces. The main vertical stab gets nothing being hidden by that happen at that approach angle.
2:18:25 No probs mate, just get yur drone up and whizz on over there!
Those engines look too small.Amazing engineering effort.
Imagine that eventually becoming a commercial airline!
I wonder how much lift the fuselage contributes…???
WHAT?? if only i didnt go to school today. I can see the planes landing for heathrow close to me so i woulve had a perfect shot of it
Really SHOW and Presenter Both are SUPERB🎉🎉🎉
Thank you Virgin Atlantic for making this possible 😜
I heard they put this stream on the big screen at Airport Centre.
I'm surprised that the beluga one engine on each wing and the a380 has two on each wing.
Looks like a flying dolphin
Imagine flying that badboy
Ahhh super stuff guys just watched back bloody forgot all good 👍
2:07:01 Air India a350 new livery
What's that about then? Any idea about the "Vista" design on the tail?
How does all that fuel needed fit into those skinny wings?
It’s not a small issue 😂 The whole horizontal stabiliser is being replaced.
Thank you for clarifying that. I was wondering why they would fly it in for a piece 3-4 feet long!
3.18 mate it's a lot bigger than that what's being replaced.
"So that's what we're gonna do. Any questions? Oh, I forgot: Who's the guy that crashed into the plane in April? OK, you're not going near that thing mate."
What runway will it be taking off from this evening and which direction? I’m gonna go try see it
and what time will it leave?
@@iankemp2638 I’m pretty sure it will leave around 5:30pm BST
@@RomeoZoneX
Yep. Someone else says that to. Thanks.
The Beluga XL is a flying bottle nose dolphin.
Beluga reg is F-GXLO isn't it?
So the wings are made in Wales and transported by Belugas?
Only two engines for such a large plane ?
Is that what they used to call Guppy back years ago or am I going mad..?
1:49:00 butter landing
Historical moment
Does anyone know if it’s possible to see it depart later today? If so, what is the best viewing location?
What time does it depart out of LHR
I want to be a pilot on the beluga
Why was this beautiful beast visiting LHR ?
Why wasn't it on Flight radar?
is Singapore Airlines using beluga for passenger service?
yeah they are planning a giant first class lounge area with swimming pool
How old is that hanger ?
You serious!????
I now know I’m going mad!!!
I have now done a bit of , late , research. It’s quite a thing.
I had never seen it before, didn’t know anything about it , obvs. Amazing plane, as are all the other working , not holiday , planes.
Amazing.!!!!
Where I live I see them often..... Good eh?
Hi
Why was the beluga at Heathrow?
01:48:42
What time will it leave?
17:20 scheduled
Many thanks@@Gazzasfifavids
It's obvious ,but nothing looks more like a Beluga than that,not even an actual Beluga 😂
I was at school😢
Where can I go to see a view like that
Chester
But like where can I go on Heathrow to see it take off in 1h
Is there only one Beluga ?
C'mon, get on with it!
I now subscribe how do I get to comment?
You'll be able to chat when we go live again for the departure th-cam.com/users/liveddGsdGJxvJ8? and welcome!
Her???
BELUGA DELAYED FOR 1 ONE HOUR!!!
Well you can see how it gets its name, but it’s quite an ugly monster, is it not?
Look's Like a WHALE ?
Hells Bells - That is one ugly looking aircraft.
A new page in the history book, not only LHR , but for BJTV. Well done, Jerry and Gilly top draw 🛬🛬
