- I sat on The Runway at Manchester Airport eating a Doner Kebab Burger with Airplanes flying over my head. Flight UAE17 from Dubai an Airbus A380 also flew right over me, so close you can see the pilot in the cockpit. Watch as I capture some stunning footage of planes coming into land at Manchester Airport.

Yeah great location for a pub I could quite happily sit there one afternoon with a few beers and a bite to eat watching all the planes but might well get a bit jealous and wish I was on one of them going somewhere nice for a week or two maybe longer maybe even relocate to another country I wouldn't say no too
If you go the the visitor center at the other end of the runway you can watch the planes take off and land and they do food in the hanger with a concord inside
My dad use to take me here in the late 90s/early 2000s when I was a kid. Miss you dad
*It's hard to imagine those Planes are travelling at approximately 150 to 165 MPH when Landing ! - Didn't think much to the Doner Kebab **_thing_** and at £14.40 'ow MUCH WOW !*
There is a special thing about plane's gotta love them
Such a cool place. I really like Manchester Airport overall. Flown in and out many times and always enjoy it.
The 380 looked far better than the 🍔🍔. You need to get close to Heathrow, a plane every 90 seconds from 6am til 11pm😊😊
Being a plane geek myself.. I could sit there all day Lee!!!!!
Hi Lee,Im an ex aviation fuel delivery driver worked for CONOCO, I remember the old Tupelev russian planes that flew to the old Yugoslavia,They could burst your eardrums.
I used to go there with my Dad quite often over forty years ago. In those days the beer garden was just an overgrown scrub of land, the car parking was free and the only food was crisps and nuts; the pub was much more basic and traditional too. You would often go and the beer garden was shut too. I watched Concorde take off from there more than once! You don't forget that....
"Not the best burger I've had." Now there's an advert for you!
Still amazes me how them big birds get off the ground,truly human engineering at its absolute best.
Your becoming Jim bowen with the super smashing fantastic, it's great, lol love the airport like 👍✈️
I come here now and again. Only an hour from where I live in Derbyshire. Lovely spot.
I prefer the Runway Visitor Park most days as you can see them taking off too. The Airport Pub is great when the planes are taking off from that runway, they turn right in front of you
Hi Lee, you simply MUST go to the other end of the runway to the Manchester Runway Visitor Park. You can take your own food, there’s picnic benches, outdoor play area for the kids, an aviation shop, a restaurant with a view of Concorde which you can go on a tour of. Several aircraft’s to explore and even a mini funfair. All with the same if not better view of the planes than at the pub. It’s a MUST pal.
It’s looks great and I remember when I was younger lad seeing the train in London and it lots of fun 🤩 good job.
Thanks for flagging this place! Amazing. Will definitely go - but on a weekday during term time if you get my drift 😂
I work a lot (and used to live in Bristol) that has British Aerospace and Rolls Royce (jet engins) almost next door to each other. Working near by one day an A380 (unliveried) prototype was testing in the area and flew so low down that I could actually see the pilot, what a sight.
Thanks for the day out and the experience Lee, a true planespotters' dream location. The take-offs must be awesome too...I will give this vlog a 10 +
wow 😄
Loved it that you could see the passenger's waving while stuffing your face
Hi Lee, I understand the reason why airports change runways during the day is to give local residents some respite. This usually happens at 15.00hrs each day. The noise of taking off and landing is different, especially if the aircraft is taking off in the westerly direction. Also, I being an av geek would like to inform you that when Concorde was active it had a unique call sign of 'speed bird'' now all BA aeroplanes use the call sign 'speed bird'.
During school holidays, looks like hell on earth!!
Amazing upload! Try the Green man pub near Heathrow, the planes more or less skim the roof of the pub.
.
Doner kebab burger. What a terrible idea.
Lee that bread bun looked like it has been defrosted as it was crumbling in your hand if it was fresh it would not break up like it did.
That would drive me nuts,
Been there a few times Lee. Fascinating couple of hours. However not during the school holidays.
Forget the food and more Boeing, Airbus and ATR'S please.😃 think there were a couple of Embraer in the too!😉
Love your airport videos
The flying BRA from Newquay at 10:02 had a bit of a wobble on due to the wind, but well done to the pilot for landing it safely. Looked like a great day out!
If you’re taking the kids have a look at the official Manchester airport runway visitor park just down the road 👍
Best video yet - thanks for the plane spotting ✈️❤
Good job those planes arrive 'one after the other' - would be pretty awkward otherwise!!
That's very, very cool Lee, love it🤩🤩🤩🤩💙food, drink and low flying planes 😳😳😆🤩
Fantastic lee
£14.40 for that, it's £4.40 at the very most! RIP OFF or what???? 🤬👎
Amazing place ...great vlog and hope its not too long b4 we see u back overseas
I think I'll go when the kids are back at school.
Used to work on Terminal 4 Heathrow and members of the team would disappear during the day to watch the planes come and go. A strange way to để stress but it worked. Happy memories. Interesting video. Keep them coming.
Get the train to Manchester airport. Get yourself to terminal 3 and walk the perimeter road to the airport pub. Save on the car parking fees and enjoy a beer.
Great video looks fantastic there
Wow fantastic love watching planes coming in could sit there all day 👍👍
As a fellow aviation enthusiast myself I can highly recommend a visit to east Kirkby aviation museum in Lincolnshire to see the Lancaster Bomber that they are restoring to flying condition and a mosquito that is fully working but not airworthy. You can also book a taxi ride in the Lancaster Bomber. Well worth the money.
Love going there before we go on holiday and usually stay at airport Hotel the evening before, always go for a couple of drinks and watch the planes , great Vlog Lee
Great for plane/train spotters. Not my cup of tea! But i hope your children love their day out.
That place looks fantastic. Enjoyed that.....
Enjoyed that video 😊....
Lee, what a wonderful video! It was so enjoyable to watch! I would definitely visit that place if I lived in the UK.
I was sitting here thinking how amazing planes are and the people who fly them. You don’t realize how many airlines there are!
I kept cheering for an American plane to fly in but alas…no dice.
I guess it was too late in the day for American planes.
This video was one of my favorites! The A380 was truly massive!
Keep the videos coming!
I watch Airliners Live on You Tube and they seem to actually be in an area inside Manchester airport and I think there is somewhere to get food ? Fantastic view of take offs and landings. I too love airplanes and had a smile on my face watching this video.
Great move by Robinsons 👍
That looks brilliant Lee i would love to visit there.
Love this place it’s my favourite day out for plane spotting x
I remember when it was just a pub we used scanner to hear them talk to control tower the food 4.5
I love Emirates business class with the bar on the upper deck. I was in it last month.😆 I used to go to this pub often when I worked at Manchester airport.
I decided to leave work an hour early today as a Pilot.
The flight attendants started freaking out when I grabbed my parachute, though.🤣🤣🤣
A plane spotter’s paradise, I’ve seen other CZcamsr’s from here before. I afraid wouldn’t know a DC10 from a Boeing or a Tristar or whatever. I’m not a plane person. Food didn’t look great to be honest Lee well over cooked that burger. Fries didn’t excite me either. Nice place to take the family though.
Guy Ritchie has recently taken over Compton Abbas Airfield near Shaftesbury, Dorset. And has revamped the cafe and bar. There’s outside seating to view vintage planes flying. Great experience, and just down the road from James May’s pub.
Go to the runway visitor park at manchester. You are closer to the planes and you can book a tour on concorde too. There is a playground and visitor center and a couple of other planes you can go on. Well worth a visit😊😊😊😊
I LOVE❤ PLANE LOVE THE SOUD FOR THE DEPARTURE
WOW! That was amazing to see, I thought the Virgin Atlantic was big too! Thanks Lee 😊
Its a long time since i was last at the airport pub , But it does provide you with the following benefits , Great if your picking someone up from the airport and watch their plane landing and give them an hour to get through the airport and pick them up. Not sure if you can pick up for free these days, But tell them to meet you at the petrol station, Great also, Leave home early if flying out of manchester and park up at the pub for an hour and also great for days out... There is also a second viewing area and they have the Concorde in a shed and other planes plus dodgems and jets. There are many youtubers now getting set up at 5am in the morning for all the morning action.
Another Great Video Lee,could sit there all day and watch those planes
Hi Lee. If you're thinking of going at the weekend it can get very busy. I'd try and get there as early as possible to avoid disappointment as the car park gets completely full at weekends and there's nowhere else to park. There is also the runway visitor park at the end of the runway. There's more space to park down there so I'd go pub first then visitor centre - you''ll get vest of both worlds with takeoffs and landings that way.
great video takes me back to late 70s early 80s first lads trip to ibiza we were lucky to see planes taking off.
My 5 year old boy was watching this video with me lol he loved the planes bless him.
I used to live on fly path .Saw beautiful planes , in covid Chinook , typhoons delivering supplies to hospitals. Best Concorde flying over rooftop on numerous times .
if you go down the road towards the airport there is an rvp area where you can get even closer there is a cafe there and an outside play area for the kids
There's something very off about that parking tariff (aside from the fact that you have to pay at all, if eating): The rate per hour goes up AND down... very strange.
It's on private property so they can charge what they wany unfortunately.
Definitely best place for plane spotting. Haven't been there for years though. Might have to make a visit 😊
Nice to see you visiting my local airport.
YYZ What a tune 🤘🤘🤘
What site lea xp
Manchester Airport is lucky enough to have 2 runways so they use one for landings and one for taking off.
I expect they swap it around on an easterly wind so that's when you'd see takeoffs from your runway.
A380 is a dream, went to Australia on one.
Cheers
Phil
What a fantastic place to see planes. The burger looked really overcooked, no wonder it was dry.
Best time to watch planes taking off from the runway you were next to is between 09.00 and 11.00 each morning. The pub doesn’t open until 10.00 but on a Sunday they’ll let you in at 09.30 and that’s the busy time for planes.
Cracking place to plane spot. Been numerous times
Brilliant vlog lee, I absolutely love this place and been a few times, lost hours just watching planes. I’ve looked into it and meant to be another great spot on the other end of the runway to believe it’s a cafe with a museum in. The guy who does the lives there watching planes take off and land and it looks a brilliant spot to, I’m definitely gonna check that one out to.
Enjoyed that lee gets you in the holiday mood lol
Food looks good to
Get yourself to east Midlands airport again then sunny benidorm once again
😎😎
Food looked OK,nothing more.Passed the pub many times on the road and also sat on a plane.Didn't realise it was so nice.At times they use this runway for landings and take off's and other times just landings,the other runway being used for departures.i think the times are listed on the airport website.Obviously if they're using the other end you will see them taking off but landing ones turn off before reaching the pub.Class video.
Cracking video Lee. Try the airport viewing park at the end of the runway . Great day out and you can see concorde
Great video
Excellent venue. Although can get quite busy at weekends with difficulty to park. Great set up for kids
If you're going back to the airport Lee, go to the Runway Visitor Park. Trust me. Yes, you have to pay for parking, but you get much more. The planes taxi right past you, there's the Concorde exhibit and tour, a model store, toilets, picnic tables, spotting mounds with telescopes and a cafe that actually serves good grub.. 👍
Great review thanks for showing my pager buzzers I sell those it’s my company Robinson one of my customers. Love the airport hotel brilliant place lovely when the suns out 👍 the food inside is much better than outside
Quite interesting this video because I’ve actually done the same with my dad a few years back
Looks a great place to go and watch the planes 👌
Looks tasty that burger, well stacked and the crispy fries look nice. Good location you've got there, we've got a place just off the runaway here that is a bar/restaurant, can sit outside where I live, when the sun out, it's lovely up there
As a teenager in the 80,s Heathrow had the queen's building watching the planes at 18.30 concord takes off noise amazing
Saw. Concorde, take off and land, there. Fantastic day
Manchester airport also have a visitor's park where you can see concord, it's great views of the planes too.. 👍
Hi Lee, yes ita all to do with wind direction as aircraft take off and land into the wind for lift, its awesome to see them take off and hear the engines spool up, awesome, perfect day for the kids 👍
Love it there great for families been taking my kids there since they were toddlers now in there 30s n forties also i use Flightradar 24 all the time living on the approach flightpath of Manchester airport re the scran we always used to pack a picnic😋🤓
The food is deffo better inside, lovely sitting in the conservatory,, planes were taking off last time I went
yesss you went there.. Its a brilliant place isnt it 😁
Well that’s different the children were louder than the planes. Definitely go when they go back to school and Dona burger Shame on you Lee.
You were a kid once ;) x
My thoughts exactly
@@TheMacMasterWe all were but it's supposed to be a pub not a kids playground. We were definitely never allowed to run around screaming in pubs back in the day. I will go when they're back in school
Great vid. As an avid plane spotter myself I love watching the planes at Manchester airport (there's a couple of guys have a dedicated CZcams channel and sometimes they video from the pub) When the planes are taking off they come really close to the wire fence at the pub which is brilliant. You should get yourself an airband scanner and then you could listen in to air traffic control which adds and extra dimension to the plane spotting experience. ( Can't broadcast ATC on youtube though as that would be illegal) Hope you do another vid with the kids (they'll love it) and hopefully you'll get a close up view of the taxiing take off aircraft next time. 👍😎
A great place to go if you are a airplane geek like me or anybody can go there.They had a burger called the Antonov Burger when l went,that was a burger.Yet again another great vlog we always enjoy your vlogs.Many thanks Richard and Tanya from Southampton
...and yet those fries looked really good and crunchy. In such a unique environment, I would give it a 10+ also, but the burger and fries a 6.5 for me.😊
That looked a really great place.
