Livestream of airports

[DualityNSNO]

For 6 months only though lol

The place is tainted from it for the other 6 months lol

We’ve all been there. The absolute pits for me though was Abu Dhabi, it’s a complete dive of an airport.

Inclined to agree with that. Very poorly designed.

Tokyo Haneda

Brilliant, I'm set for the night watching this.

Thanks for posting.

Remember being on holiday in lanzarote and watching the planes landing … sounds boring but if anyones been there you’ll know how close it is to the beachfront. You could basically sit on the beach and watch them fly really low overhead just outside the airport perimeter.

Not closer than Maho Beach in good ol Saint Maarten

Sint Maarten is insane

Some interesting ones when it's windy:

Birmingham
Leeds Bradford

The strongest winds in the UK tend to be south westerly, and those runways are aligned NW-SE, so not in an optimal direction. Crosswind landings galore.


Madeira Funchal
Tenerife South

When the trade winds get going in the tropics, they're not as strong as the winds we can get in the UK, but the mountainous nature of these islands causes the wind to do some odd things, making approaches very challenging to stabilise.


Pilots work hard when it's blowing a howly. Give them some love.

I couldn't believe people were in the water when the planes flew by. The swells were insane.

I prefer Live Jasmine to Live landings.

Why do people watch planes all day? Is it in the hope that they get to watch one crash? I don't get it.

I don't think so.

I think the livestreaming trend is growing the popularity of what would previously be considered to be uncool anorak type interests, like trainspotting, bird watching ect. People can get a sense of the real time "action" without having to camp out in the rain all day, or god forbid get noticed in the act by a peer lol
