Heathrow 5 February 2021 - Highlights

[seebee]

Heathrow back on Westerlies and 27L.

Great weather with blue skies for most of the day.

Quite a few of interest today including two 747 Freighters and an Azur 767 that made an unusual approach being too high and slightly off course that resulted in a go-around.

In arrival sequence.

Great shots as ever Seebee, so much going into LHR that I need, roll on these restrictions being lifted and the chance for a few days up there on catch up.

Thanks Graham.

Although the number of arrivals is considerably reduced, they have at least been replaced by a variety of cargo flights that has resulted in a number of interesting visitors.

I share your hope that we can get out again soon but, given the first 2021 cancellations, it looks as if we may have to wait a little longer yet.
