ZZ Thanks for comments. I live about 150 miles from Heathrow. I live nearer to Bob ( Mr BlueSky ) and lived as a child within one mile of Manchester airport. I also have a very understanding wife who was with me. Two of my young grandsons normally come away with us to Heathrow except for Xmas. Les

Graham I have only listed the 66 x A380's and 69 x B787's seen so that Mr BlueSky and zz can see that it is worth visiting Heathrow. A few sample photos shown. I have not checked total of aircraft seen and logged over the six days but must be in the hundreds. Les

Another blank day. Two needed 787s went overhead one after another a few minutes ago but above the cloud, A7-BCY and G-VOWS. Total for the year stands at 966' likely to stay that way looking at the forecast!

Yes great log, surprised how close the numbers were between the 380 and 787....... Thought the 787 would win by a country mile to be honest !

Off to Eurodisney today for the kids! Currently sat waiting to board for the Channel Tunnel.
The route takes us straight past/ under Charles De Galle so I'll have FR24 at the ready!

Thanks Jeff- yes have managed a couple of overflights on previous visits, but I don't think I get great phone reception in the park.
Cheers
Happy New Year all
