Hi guys, Sorry for the lack of input for the forum lately, I've been very busy at work and with school. For those who don't know I currently work at Gatwick as a customer service host and promotions agent. I managed to pop airside the day Gatwick reopened just after the spat of heavy snow fall. However the area was under freezing fog for quite a while and visibility was severly reduced. Sorry for the glare in some of the photos, these were all taken inside the pier 6 bridge.

Hi Stu, Having been to Scotland many a time I can safely say that all year round the weather is a tad on the cold side! However the summer months will obviously tend to be alot warmer that others. I'd say the month of April is a fab time to visit if your only looking for a spring visit! Though winter in Scotland maybe present all year round, you will definatley notice the scottish winter creeping in from around August so wrap up warm!

Brazil: Air France Jet Lands After Bomb Threat
grth_bbtt replied to allardjd's topic in Real World Aviation
It's still so so so incredibly easy to defeat the secuirty systems at airports its unbelievable. This 100ml liquid rule is absolutley pathetic. Its incredibly easy to beat! It's no suprise bomb threats are in circulation on flights -
Hi guys, Before I even start, I'd ike to say a quick sorry for not contributing much recently. I am currently at the very tail end of my GCSE's and I also have work to attend to. Hopefully you shall see me more on these forums in the near future. Overall working at Gatwick means that during weekends when I usually film there, means I'm usually sick of the place before the weekend, so filming there for the time being has taken a dramatic decrease. However my youtube channel is still updated with video from flying, and my most recent includes some spin training and flight videos. Anyway,

Sorry this note is pretty late and you've probably all made plans for the weekend, but I've not been on the forums much latley :blush: But if you live in the vicinity of Gatwick in Sussex and Surrey OR even further then pop along to the annual Gatwick Aviation enthusiasts fair at K2 Crawley. There is a large selection of photos, videos, DVD's, Models and much much more available to buy! The event takes place THIS Sunday the 25th of April If your popping along, let me know as it will be great too see some fellow forum members

Flying Lesson - West London Aero Club (White Waltham)
grth_bbtt replied to TapA321's topic in Real World Aviation
Looked like superb weather for flying there and looked like a great flight! Looks a very tidy airfield to fly out of and certainly looks alot less hectic than Shoreham does! I currently undergo around 2 trial lessons each year at Shoreham just for enjoyment and too see what its like. I am in the exact situation as you, exams this summer and then sixth form in September and wanting to get a PPL ASAP. Finding the money is a pretty hard job and it's the only thing stopping me at the moment -

Well as promised quite a while ago now, here are some new videos for the start of 2010. Heres a recent shot from filming at Gatwick nearly 2 months ago. What you see in use is the same camera I have been using for many years now along with the addition of a Rode Videomic and a Sony telephoto lens for some more close up shots. Oh and a rather idiotic unattractive boy Anyways. Here are the few videos to start off with. First is a shot with a BA 777 taxing head on. This was a fairly lucky shot as the taxiway they normally use parallel to the runway their using as a temporary taxiway was clos
