one for copper,
last week this BA airbus at heathrow caught in some crosswinds...
Link to videoI'm curious if they film all commercial take offs and landings for the record?

This is all so reassuring.
Mrs. GEorge will not fly.
Not gonna show these videos to her.
I made the mistake of showing her cross-wind landings at Hong Kong. Mistake is an understatement.

I don't think they do. I might be wrong.
It sounds to me like something the pilot's union wouldn't like, but I'm not sure.

The old Kai Tek airport in HK was quite interesting. The landing was so close to apartment buildings, it seemed I could look out the plane window and see what people were cooking! 555

Minneapolis St Paul airport today
I wonder which plane that was. I fly delta all the time (well, about 6-10 times a year) out of MSP.

DL2289 on 24 APR 2022 from DCA to MSP
N301DU Airbus A220
My mistake in saying “today”
It was last week

Wow! My very last flight (on April 14) was on that plane. I also flew it in July, August, and December last year.

@bachophile interesting, I figured the callsign was the same thing as the airplane itself.
