    Nice video, Ladybird was my first Virgin 747 flight between Manchester and JFK and Tinker Belle was my last, but I did manage to buy the lifejacket from underneath the seat on my last flight (64a) from eCube, it's a shame these glamorous ladies were retired way before there time, thanks for sharing! 👍

    Hi Brad.It was great to see G-VAST depart on her final flight and then for you to catch the final landing at St.Athan, it reminded me of Kemble and may I say you were in the perfect spot.A shame about the wind but at least it was dry.Thanks for sharing Brad,lets see your subs head for 500 pretty soon.Chris

    I don’t think the front gear did bounce. Did you see the take off from Manchester? As it took off it did a wing wave so I think when it lands it’s like a little ‘bow’. Just before the gear goes to touch he picks the nose back up then I’m pretty sure he holds for a few seconds on purpose. I have no idea for sure, just a hunch going by the deliberate wing wave on take off.

    • @BradleyPennyAviation
      @BradleyPennyAviation  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was a tiny bounce! I was watching the BIG JET TV stream! It seams at though that happened! The wing wave was really cool! Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed the video!
