On Sunday 23rd January 2011 there were two cargo 747s that went through Glasow Prestick Airport. The first, a Cargolux plane came from LAX, landed at 2pm using runway 13 (I mostly photographed this so don't have much video). The second, an Air France Cargo 744-F came from Chicago, landing at 3.05pm on runway 31. The two of them turned around and taxied out around 5pm taking off straight after each other. The viewpoint from the fence at the end of runway 13 is brilliant, those 744s are just hughe. And the jet blast as they go by is really noticeable, even on the video as wind noise. Nice, hot and smells of aircraft fuel. It was getting dark by the time these big boys left but this adds to the video I think.
