@TheOwlBerlin Hi Leo thanks a lot for your comment, I'm really pleased you enjoyed the video. Please do check out my website for more links to my other videos!
hi, thanks for your comment. I edit using Pinnacle Liquid Edition 6.0 I try not to use too many special fx on the raw footage but title sequences i just try and do different things.
Hello Dutchbird, sincerely many thanks for your comment. This was my first trip to LCY so it was very much a fact finding mission, i.e where could I go and where could i film, I would love to go back and film more. I've got more landing shots too, but in this video I was trying to cover lots of aircraft types, and movement sequences. Even then- it goes on a bit for TH-cam standards :) thanks again and for subscribing.
@JustProps Hi just props, please take a look at my website for details of the equipment I use and for tips on locations.. i hope that helps. Thanks for your comment, and for watching the video, I do appreciate it.
Hello Malinda thank you for watching my video from London City Airport, I'm pleased you liked it and I am grateful for your comment.
Hi gillyboy1971, thanks for watching my video from London City Airport I'm pleased you enjoyed watching it and it was nice to read your comment. Have to agree with you about the 146, it was a really good invention and a shame that we no longer really make anything like this ourselves now. There are so many airports around that could be developed more, look at what they've managed at Southend recently. I guess its about having deep pockets to attract airlines and to ensure modern facilities.
Hi there, thanks for your message, everyone has different skills, and many of them, come with experience and practice. I know i'll never be as good as the professionals, but I try hard with the tools i've got. It makes me happy to think that other people see that too. Thanks again.
@737boeing8 Sometimes the prevailing wind means that the camera picks up the engine sounds better than other times. I'm no expert by any stretch, on the relative no of decibels for an ERJ vs the other aircraft operating. However, thanks for watching and for commenting I do appreciate it,.
Thank you very much for your kind words ChickenwingAirlines, I really appreciate them. I am very pleased that you enjoy my videos. LCY is a bit of a trek for me so I don't know if I'll be there again in the immediate future, but it is certainly an airport I want to go back to SOON. Thanks again.
Hi thanks very much for your comment, i really do appreciate it. I use a Sony HDR FX7, it took a lot to save up for but it was worth it in the sense that the image quality is really good. Thanks again
What a fantastic video!! I can remember the TWA video you did a few months/years back. I brought one of the DVD's as I am a huge fan of TWA
that lufthansa using continuous decent had one pretty radical approach!!
Lovely video, completed my first LCY journey march this year flying to EDI.
Hi there, thanks for your comment, it's kind of you to take time to leave one. I'll grant it to your grandad, it's definitely out of the ordinary flying to LCY because of the steep approaches. But, to me, that's exciting :-) Cheers.
thanks for the update re: Swiss 146/Avro aircraft Alexwaugh881. Its a shame the aircraft are slowly disappearing, they look smart, a unique shape and appearance. They always look good landing at LCY with the steep approach too. Still other carriers will likely operate them a while yet, TNT and Titan spring to mind.
Hi harrihealey02 thanks very much glad you liked the video. You need to get the tube the Royal Albert Docks - there you're on the other side of the water, only problem is sun is in wrong direction.
Dude I love the luxair erj that took off
Hello Rigo Alessandro Rodas, thanks fior watching my video from London City Airport 🛫 👍👍
Yes CityJet was Irish, although it was then taken over by Air France, however I think (although someone else may be able to advise further) they still operate on their own operators certificates, The aircraft are Irish Registered too.
Thanks for your comment GallerySouthwest, I am pleased you liked the footage too.
hi hatethetube, thanks very much for your comment, very pleased to hear you enjoyed the footage.
Hi plymouthapproach, yes I read that Air Southwest were starting flights to LCY and I have been very tempted to book a flight myself as it's only around £29 or something. I have heard lots of good things about ASW so I hope, like Aer Arann, that their route's a success. I've never flown myself from LCY, but want to, the steep approach and amazing city-scape must be great.
no problem, I used to have Hi8, it's true that you really notice the difference now when looking back, but when you think how much technology has changed like with the TV pictures its not surprising. You could pick up a DV Tape enabled Sony Handycam with HD capability, I also use a Sony HDR HC3 which is pretty good
Hi defaultytuser thanks for your comment. Yes that was a Dornier in the video. Although it's painted up in BA colours it's actually a franchise agreement with a company called SunAir of scandinavia. The reg begins OY rather than G- However I'm not sure why they operate like this. Hope that helps --a little!
@matthiashaenni Thank you very much; it's strange to think that just a couple of years on and everything at #LCY_Airport will look so different now as more and more Embraers have replaced the Avros/146's. AS for Skywork, they have a lovely livery, very colourful aircraft interestingly I understand that one of their Dash8's diverted from LCY today into my local airport at Stansted but unfortunately I wasn't there to capture it! thanks again for your support.
Hello tonightwefly, thanks very much for your comment I'm pleased you liked this video. I have been making lots of different videos since my early TWA one - and thanks for buying one! - I hope you'll stop by my page and see some of my other videos too. Just a pity I couldn't film more of TWA when I had the chance.
Really enjoyed it! Being a pilot who flies into LCY almost daily I would love to see some landing footage from the same spot on the northern side in strong gusty conditions. The LH landing was great! Thanks. 5/5
@somethingtoremember1 thanks very much for your comment and for watching my video. I don't know many other UK airlines operating the 146 - Titan Airways does at Stansted.
Hello Monkey10Boy VLM is based in Belgium but it was taken over by CityJet, as far as I am aware all aircraft are now operated in CityJet colours, which although professional looking, are no match for that striking VLM blue and gold.
Thanks again iflydelta1101, glad you're liking my videos. Makes it all worthwhile when I get positive comments - makes me want to carry on! I use LiquidEdition by Avid to edit the vids.
It's funny isn't it alexwaugh881, it's kind of all or nothing in a way, a few years back it was virtually all 146's, now it's going the way of the E-Jets. At least we still have a bit of variety at the moment as the crossover period. I assume Swiss and Lufthansa Regional and CityJet still operate 146's at LCY. Thanks for watching and sharing your comment.
Damn, for such a small jet, the ERJ 135's can be LOUD!!!
No probs nevernoob19. LCY has a really small runway so only small jet and turboprop planes can land and takeoff. The big A300 - A380 or 737-777 type aircraft all use the main airports like Heathrow with the long runways. Personally speaking the small planes are nicer!
@juuls26 thanks for watching my London City Airport video and for your comment. I do not thinks i have any footage of cimber sterling operating at LCY i certainly dont recall having any.. i also saw a sun air do 328 jet @manchester a few weeks ago.
@ew12345671 Thanks so much for your kind response to my @London City Video. I'm really happy that you enjoyed the video and for taking time to comment. I use a Sony FX7 camera, it's a 'prosumer' camera but also have a smaller Sony Handycam for some types of filming. I have more details on my website if you need them. Thank you once again.
Hay dude, wow grate video! Ive never had the pleasure of flying into London City but Grandad says its terrifying lol
@MegaPlanelover an interesting thought there Megaplanelover, only problem is the lack of space and small runway... would be handy though!
Thanks 4 ur comment FTFLCY. Everyone is entitled to their point of view, however, LCY was built as part of the whole LDDC plan for regeneration of Docklands region. It's one of the most heavily regulated airports - no night flights & shut on a Saturday. nearby housing is newly built so ppl had a choice. I suggest Local jobs & supporting the continued development of East End. Take the point about conflict of interest, suggest u contact ur MP. The LU is loud, roads are loud..am out of characters
@Kermitfrog101 Hello the Dornier 328 is actually operated by SunAir under a joint operation with BA, a bit like a franchise service i believe.
Great video, I have often wondered about access for pictures at LCY. Can you tell me the make/ model video camera used for this video? Best Regards
@madaboutrains Hi madabouttrains sorry for the delay in responding i have been away from my PC for a few days. The plane at 5:24/5;30 is a Dornier 328 in the colours of British Airways. The aircraft is operated by SunAir under a franchise agreement.
The BAe 146/ Avro RJ is my favourite aeroplane and the last British airliner to be built. I am fortunate to have flown on one before and I dont think I will be able to fly on one again as now Flybe and British airways have both phased them out.
@FPVsean Hello FPVsean thanks for your comment. The 146 and Fokker 50 approaches at LCY always look steep. The airport uses steep approach procedures, which I think have been relaxed a little over time, I think they used to be something like 5 degree although someone with better flight knowledge may be able to give exact angles.
hello nevernoob19, the planes shown in the London City Airport video are considerably smaller than the A300.
hello and good job on your videos...incredible
Sweet little engines :)
@737boeing8 Hello 737boeing8; yes the CityJet Do328s are actually owned by Scot Airways based in Cambridge in East Anglia.
hi, no it's not possible to turn a Hi8 into a HD camera. it's all down to the actual technology within the camera, how it processes the colours, the definition, is to do with how the light hits the sensors. I think you'd need a new camera, for a Handycam you're looking at around £500 upwards. I think relatively speaking, cameras are now cheaper than they were when you bought your Hi8 but having said that, it's still a lot of money.
great footage!
Cityjet are awesome :P
Hi, yeah you have to pay for it. it's both a software and hardware setup, so you have a breakout box that lets u connect the cam to do the capturing and the software to do the editing/titles. Tbh, it's not the software that u use, but more about trying to capture the best sequences to start with, I mean u can edit using Windows movie maker, the key is getting the footage, that's the bit I find hard!
Hello Malinda, sorry for my slow reply, I've had loads and loads of comments to work my way through. Yes, I am also on Flickr under the same name :-)
@somethingtoremember1 Well if you wanted to fly on a NON UK registered airline, then I guess Cityjet/ Swiss and Lufthansa Regional are still operating Avro's/146s out of City Airport so there's still time! I know there's a few at Manchester too including Swiss and Brussels Airlines but they may not be going to the destinations you want. Its nice to see new aircraft but equally it's nice seeing variety the 146 has been a very successful airliner in terms of is STOL so hopefully around a while yet
orale este video esta chido sigue asi jejejme gusta este tipo de tomas
Great video!! :)
@ladybab Thats very kind of you ladybab Thank you.
@ChaniaGregorys Thanks very much.

thanks for commenting GMuzicc
Cheers :)
hello funnyrandomgenius (cool name!) I filmed this vid on the 12th March 2009.
these airplane look so small compare to the American Airplanes the AirBus A300. Are these Planes the same size as the A300?
@bananamanuk
Ok, thanks. London CIty is a great airport. I fly there all the time in FSX.
Pleasure mate, btw you are on flickr as well right? Unless its another bananamanuk but I doubt it! lol
Nice Intro!!
@shamrock608 Thanks for your comments shamrock608
@William0Miaarosefan not really a question a mere videographer like me could possibly answer. I am sure he will be fully aware of the LDDC and its remit for the region.
hello tester4200 thanks a lot
@madaboutrains Ok madaboutrains sorry about that, who says I don't need my eyes testing!?!
I had no idea Air France Cityjet operated Dornier Do328's!!!!!
@musicman95si Thanks musicman95si
is cityjet irish?
@bananamanuk
Yeah, Titan Airways I think will be operating them on Snowjet routes on the winter now that they have bought Snowjet. It's a great shame really.
French, German, English, Spanish.
Did I miss any?
Fokker (L)
Thumb up!
