200 ft passes down the Broughton Runway...?

Living the dream.
During Covid lockdown a lot of RAF fighters and transport did that on local airports Liverpool and Manchester taking advantage as there were no commercial flights around. Stunning to see a Hercules nearly standing on a wingtip in a tight bank.

Nothing really just pointing it out. I tried to upload AdS-b screenshot but it was too big a file 🥴
A Typhoon going into Liverpool doesn’t happen often, after it left Scouseport it flew over us 👍🏻
No I was just interested.....
We regularly see touch and go landing at Prestwick Airport by all sorts of planes both military and commercial but Prestwick does tend to be quite quiet..
Used to love going down to see Concorde doing training flights there..

Prestwick is a full service airfield with all the electronic equipment used to land aircraft such as ILS etc, and because it is quieter than Glasgow it’s a good airfield on the West coast to use. If you watch ADS-B or Flightradar24 most weekdays you will see an A400m Atlas fly up the east coast,cross over to Prestwick then back home to Brize Norton 👍🏻
When I was flying we often flew into Prestwick for fuel before flying onto Mull, Skye and once even Stornoway.

Playing, out from RAF Shawbury helicopter pilot training school and air traffic training I believe, certainly used to be.

You will notice A400Ms fly over Shawbury on most of their sorties northwards out of Brize Norton very often do the same on their return south to BZZ.
