- Brief explanation.
Local police helicopter (which i thought i missed but you'll see at 9:00 minutes arriving just as the A380 started to depart. This caused the A380 to abort its departure ( i presume because of the wind vortex it would create) I missed the go arounds due to concentrating on the ground movements. Birmingham Airport is mainly a one in one out Airport so for us locals this was quite an event seeing so much ground traffic go arounds etc at one time. Hope this explanation helps 👍✈👍

Thank you so much for doing this. Really appreciate you taking the time to do it. Thank-you for watching and hope you enjoyed the video 👍✈👍
@@speedbird0094 - Hey, it's a pleasure! I enjoy watching aircraft movements, and this was a particular day when things didn't quite go according to plan! Of course, your own list of aircraft types helped me considerably in my listing!
Your photography and camera equipment are excellent, and I know it's not always easy to cover all the shots all the time, because circumstances and relative positions change.
I really appreciate your feedback. I'll look out for more of your output, and would be happy to put timestamps on future shows as and when I catch up with them.
Good luck with your channel, and you must be encouraged that this particular show attracted 1,750,000 views... remarkable!
😀William
@@mtm4a really appreciate your kind words. This is all quite new for me although I've always had the plane spotter in me. To think I nearly didn't put this up thinking it was too long. Again thank you for your work and people like yourself make it all worthwhile
👍✈👍
They weren't police vehicles..............
great summary
Glad to see the A380 has been resurrected ... my wife and I regularly commuted LON-SIN before Covid and always re-arranged our schedule to book on an A380 ... huge sense of interior space, quiet and stable in the air ... it felt safer because of its sheer size!
On my to do list. Never been on one but would love to experience it. Thank you for watching and sharing your experience 😊
Kl regards

It's Q.C has always been questioned by a few airlines right from their first flight. One of the worst was the delivery to the Australian Airlines "Qantas" on the route to Sydney
Agreed, flew it many times to Dubai with Emirates
Flown several times to SIN and brilliant. Also lived/ connections to Windsor and love to watch them , feel the power, as you do as a passenger brilliant plane
I had the privilege a few times. My absolute favorite and it boggles the mind when you see this huge piece of metal and you wonder how it can possibly fly.
Never been on one (yet 😁) but still a sight to behold 😍
If you give anything wings that wide and that long I assure you it will try to get into the air without much effort, the real trick t=is to keep the wings intact
Flown the A380 on Thai air , Emirates and Qatar. Amazing aeroplane, smooth, spacious and comfortable.
Know how to make me jealous. Definitely on my to do list though 👍
What is the price you are willing to pay extra, for this comfort?
5$
10$
15$
20$
Just thinking and ratifying
price/comfort, then we write to the airlines and tell them.
That will bring this beautiful plane flying again, longer, bigger and quiet
Bigger longer wider and higher, were all part of initial ideas.
Make green plane fly's slower, and give's us a modern Zeppelin.
me too and Singapore
Another A380 pilot! Or did you just fly on, down the back, rather than FLY it?
Just watched this for about the 3rd time! Hats off to you Speedbird great video buddy, brilliant catch. Its nuts how something like that can cause disruption so quick in our smaller airports in UK. Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it again Ally. Makes me know that filming is appreciated. Forever grateful for your support buddy ❤
Glad I finally got to watch this Speedbird, great video well done buddy! Love the view from that location too. Thanks for sharing and great camera work!! 👏👏👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it Ally. Thought you'd left my channel for a while then 😊
@speedbird0094 Not at all buddy! Hol and rubbish WiFi. Got notifications but just wouldn't load, looking forward to the rest tonight. 👍🏼👍🏼
I flew the amazing British Airways A380 a few months ago roundtrip from DFW to London. Effortless takeoff & landings with incredible space... Loved flying on this plane, as much as the 747's, A350's and my luckiest upgrade of my lifetime in 1997....the Concorde.
Wow you really know how to make me jealous. Thank you for watching and sharing your experience with us 👍
Wow yo fly concorde so jealous
Amazes me how these things get up and stay up. I have a bit of a fear of flying.
I can understand that but as a regular flyer I'd choose this method of transport over train or coach. An amazing bit of kit this is 👍✈👍
You'r an A38 pilot? Or did you just fly ON it rather than fly it?
What a beautiful plane! Gorgeous but my goodness, those wings! Looks like they’re gonna just snap right off from the weight. It really is an engineering marvel.
Couldn't agree more 👍
I simply cannot agree with you more. Absolutely Gorgeous!
Nah, it has nothing on the 747's. 747's are the beauty of the sky...and Concord (sadly no more).
These things look like pregnant seagulls.
You can literally see the wings flying before take off..
@@GorgyPorgy65 don’t seagulls lay eggs
It's simply amazing how that much weight can get into the air. I know, physics and aerodynamics but still.
Unfortunately the camera doesn't show how close this gets a Birmingham Airport. Only can I recommend seeing it real life but I'm with you on your comment. Thanks for watching 👍✈👍
Amazing! I loved to see the wind structure from the back. It takes a lot lift to suspend something so big into the sky and I can see how the wing accommodate that so beautifully!
I've said in many a reply the beauty of this plane may not be so much about its looks but more probably the amazing engineering to get something so large in the air. I have seen wing test videos on yt and its amazing the limits they have to achieve. Thank you for watching and taking time to comment. Appreciated. 👍✈👍
Great to see the return of the A380, cheers for sharing your video - always a fantastic an imposing figure of an aeroplane (y) Have been lucky enough to fly several times with Emirates from here back to Hong Kong. Last flight was back in 2018 when I turned left and up a few stair into the upper deck area which had been converted to economy - around 30 seats from memory with dedicated staff just for this section.
Thank you for watching and sharing you memories with us 👍✈👍
I am from Uruguay, 84. Magnificently shot video. A380 take-off impressive and so well captured. Congrats.
Thank you for your kind words 👍
Can you find out what camera you used to take the photos?
I use a Panasonic camcorder buddy 👍✈👍
Shorter runway needed for A380 than i would have imagined.Rog.. Beautifully captured.
Thank you 👍
That's a 10,000 ft runway!
It's Britain's second biggest city. BHX needs to expand but atm that's not a popular policy
@@Neil070 Agree 100 %
Great video! What hit my sweet spot, PILATIUS (PJ) Pilot's roll (21:25 - 23:29) that's a takeoff! Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it. And yes the little planes often get ignored so I'm glad you spotted it 🙂
I have a wonderful memory of flying with my family on a Qantas B- 747-400! Tremendous!!!
Glad this video brought back those memories for you. With the 747 its quite rare at Birmingham Airport although I have posted one video of a cargo 747-400. Thank you for watching and taking time to comment 👍✈👍
WTH. Speedbird🤷♂️👌. This came up as recommended for me. Great video. Will check out your other vids when i have time. Hope youre well 👍.
Hi Nick. Thank you for taking time to watch and comment. This is all very new to me, a journey from still photography to using a camcorder. Just a bit of fun. All good and hope the same for you 👍✈👍
1.2m views WTG! 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️👌👌👌
@@nickwoodward3034 what can I say apart from gobsmacked 🤣🤣🤣
Beautiful on-ground spotting, great camera stabilization. Hat tip to you. Kudos to Birmingham field being able to accommodate an A380.
The runway was extended when the a380 was announced. Birmingham Airport have a CZcams timelapse video of the work been done. Thank you for your kind words and taking time to comment. 👍✈👍
Can you imagine that something weighing over 13k lbs/6k kg can actually get its own weight off the ground? That's amazing!
Physics physics and physics wow !
Its amazes me how it get off the ground thank you for watching and your comment 👍
A wonderful thing 👍
Always amazed how such a large super plane lifts off so gracefully ifly 380 always
They are a stunning piece of engineering along with the 747. Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for taking time to comment. 👍✈👍
Regarding the Follow-Me / Ops vehicles.
Birmingham, like most airports hosting Code F (aka Code VI) operations will have trail vehicles during taxi and takeoff. The vehicles help monitor Main Landing Gear to Pavement Edge distances and turning radius, and perform real-time inspection for damaged infrastructure (lights, signage, pavement, etc.) and debris blown onto runway by jet blast. Runway inspection typically not required following landing as only A380 inboard engines have thrust reversers.
Great explanation 👌 really appreciate that. Hopefully a lot of people who watch this will read your comment. Thank you for watching and taking time to comment 👍✈👍
Thanks for that explanation 👍
Wow! Thanks so much for recording and posting this. It's been fascinating to watch those marvels operating. Great fun!
Thank you for your kind words. At first I wasn't going to post this thinking it was too long but a majority of people including yourself enjoyed the video. Thank-you again for watching. 👍✈👍
Pilot: Damn. I forgot my wallet at the gate. We'll have to go back and get it.
🤣🤣 glad you enjoyed it 👍👍
wow, The a380 is one of the largest aircraft in the world, nice plane spotting video 👍
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video. 👍👍
Magnificent piece of engineering
Totally agree 👍 thank you for watching 👍✈👍
I am directly under the approach path for Dulles in VA. I see the 380 fly over at 12,000 feet every day. It looks to be more like 5,000 ft due to it's size. Never fails to impress me.
It is such an impressive aircraft 👍 on a good clear day I get London bound traffic overhead but usually 20,000 ft 😫
EMIRATES? Thought they were the only ones who still fly em! took one to japan via SA... i was so thrilled.
@@gewglesux Make someone jealous. Not been on one yet but its on my to do list 👍
@@speedbird0094 I wish i paid(SQ11) for the higher end fare to get some of the amenities. I'm just glad that they're still in the air and not converted into some Cargo carrier.
Lots of carriers have got A380 out of mothballs. Have flown Emirates A380s about 8 times and their business class is great. Fold flat seat that's wide enough to turn over in. The side seats are staggered at an angle, so no legs to climb over when getting to the Loo. The bar at the rear for drinks and snacks, love the plane. Sadly, the leg from Saigon to Dubia is on a B777 nice but not great.@@gewglesux
Wow, not much thundering down the runway. I was surprised how quickly it was airborne.
As someone said before. "Thats physics" 👍
it had a cross wind to handle as well @@speedbird0094
What a monster. ❤❤
Its a cracking plane to film 👍✈👍
Woww !! How does such a heavy thing even fly ...brilliant
Amazing isn't it 👍
Incredible zoom. Difficult to accurately track with such high zoom. Nice job. Seems to me we stayed with it long enough to see even the flaps retract.
Yea the zooming exaggerates the slightest movement but I wanted to film as much as possible before the rain came. Thank you for watching and taking time to comment. Appreciated 👍✈ 👍✈
I flew back on a BA A380 G-XLEC from Chicago O’Hare to Heathrow in November 2022. Incredibly quiet and comfortable. Compared to the 23 year old BA 777-200 that I flew out on from Heathrow, there is no comparison.
Maybe one day I'll get to go on a 380 before they all get retired. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. 👍✈👍
Hi, you are welcome. I’m sure you will fly on one as their resurgence will mean that A380’s will be flying for many more years to come 👍
Phenomenal! You made my day. Thanks so much! ❤
Thank you for your kind words and im so happy that you enjoyed the video 🙏👍✈🚁
Seeing the A380 take off is just something else and I’ve been lucky enough to have traveled many times out and back to Manchester on Emirates & Singapore A380’s.
You know how to make a guy jealous 😁 appreciate you taking time to watch my video 👍
Me to. It was a smooth flight.
SQ don't operate the A380 to MAN they operate the A350.
@@wokeupandsmellthecoffee214 yes your right but they did do for a short while some years ago and yes I’ve also been on the SQ A350 from Manchester.
@@frankbing1 Hi Frank I am certain they never operated the A380 from MAN. My wife worked for SQ MAN for 17 years when they used to operate the 747-400 then it went to the B777 before the A350 took over. I do think they may have had a diversion in on a A380 though. Cheers.
What a gorgeous bird!! What's not to love?! 😻😻😻
Yes a stunning plane. Especially close up 👍
Flew on this beauty(Qantas) from Dallas fort worth to Sydney. The smoothest ride on a commercial jet so far !
You know how to make me jealous. This is as close as ive been 🤣
@@speedbird0094 lol,
👍🏽🍻
Great close-up photography as well as videos by you dear Speedbird.
Glad you enjoyed the photo videos to but I'm afraid people prefer to watch video footage. Appreciate you taking time to watch and comment. 👍👍
@@speedbird0094 actually by mistake I mentioned photos, but then I let it and did not delete it...
Anyways thanks for returning
Stunning plane is the A380 especially when fitted with the Rolls engine
The sound is incredible. 👍
Rolls Royce Trent 900
Rolls may make a good engine but their maintenance is shite. Twice now Qantas has had engines explode to Roll's substandard maintenance practices, once in Nov. 4, 2010 and another on May 20, 2017. The first was due to cross threading a stub oil pipe and the latter due to corrosion of fan blades caused by improper cleaning procedures.

That was an interesting a rare catch of the Emirates A380 aborted takeoff. You got some nice shots of the other movements too, great views at Birmingham at that location. Nice one to stick with it and catch the departure too.
Thank you and im glad you understand what was happening here. Must admit I was reluctant to put this up originally been so long but glad I did now. Thank you again for watching and taking time to comment 👍✈👍
Like discovering some sort of Magnificent, Monstrous, Prehistoric Bird that still exists! An Amazing Sight to Behold‼️
It is 👍 to this day it amazes me how this gets off the ground.
@@speedbird0094 Agreed! I have expressed those same sentiments often since that plane came into existence! One Has to Marvel at the Engineering Complexity That Goes Into Getting That Beast Airborne and Back on the Ground So Safely! Thank You So Much for a Great Visual❣️❣️
The pilot of the 380 had to abort takeoff because of the inbound helicopter - f/w aircraft have priority at an airport unless the heli is responding to a serious emergency!
The only explanation I can give is the helicopter was low on fuel. Its the local police helicopter returning to base after being out on call.
Was this the same aircraft that was subject to a fire alert on July 4 at Birmingham when smoke was seen coming from the undercarriage. Is it the same day? Media photo of the July 4 incident shows the same journey to the future livery. The incident was blamed on a brake problem. Might explain the "escorted" takeoff.
Yes it was well spotted 👍
It's amazing how quickly they get air speed for takeoff. Local police need to be more aware of their surroundings.
Local police are a law unto themselves 🤣 thanks for watching 👍
With respect the police were cleared for approach and landing by ATC. ATC deemed it safe to allow the arrival and landing of the helicopter to coincide with the departing Airbus. Obviously the Airbus Captain can overrule if he thinks it’s conflicted
Great video and viewing area👍😄thanks for posting. From Oz all the best.
Glad you enjoyed it buddy. If you enjoyed this video please look for my a380 playlist on my channel. All my posted 380 videos are there ✈ Greeting to you all in Australia from here in the UK 🇬🇧
Love flying in this big bird to Dubai such luxury go often to see family love being able to have a shower before landing and you feel so fresh service is wonderful.
Really know how to make me jealous. Maybe one day for me. Glad you enjoyed the video and that it brought back memories for you. Thanks for watching 👍✈👍
They have removed the showers from the fleet.
@@maxflight777 probably to save a bit of weight or to get more seats in possibly? 👍✈👍
Surprised a helicopter nearby stopped this departure. Even more surprised at how close those marshalling cars got to the A380!
There has been a few comments about the cars. But every arrival and departure ive seen they have been there. The wind vortex created by the 380 would definitely have been a factor. Maybe the helicopter was low on fuel and couldn't wait ? But appreciate your comment and taking time to watch 👍😊
@@speedbird0094 Air traffic doesn't work like that. They should never have cleared the A380 for take off with the helicopter approaching on a converging heading, which no doubt triggered a TCAS alert in the A380 mandating an abort.
I appreciate you comment. We could discuss this all year and we shall never really know what actually went on that day. I tried to find an incident report and failed.
@@speedbird0094 We will know what happened as there will be an official report on the incident. The helo pilot is a professional and would not simply bust his ATC clearance at a major airport and barge into the runway area without a clearance.
So either he misunderstood his clearances limit, or was erroneously so cleared by ATC.
Or the A380 commenced T/O without a clearance (highly unlikely in my book).
I don't think you are familiar with how aviation works if you think the helo pilot appeared to everyone's surprise because he was short of fuel. Like I said, it just does not work like that, If it did, it would lead to accidents.not mere incidents. If you were a pilot, you would know that.
And if you were a pilot, I would not be having to waste time explaining this basic stuff.
Wow. Calm down bro. The helicopter didn't appear out of nowhere. Its based there. Its the local police helicopter and had been on a call out for some time. I've always maintained that its only my own personal opinion that it must have been low on fuel and given emergency clearance. Yes someone maybe got in a tangle that day. Maybe ATC maybe the 380 pilot but until we see any report we shall just have our own opinions. I have never said I was an expert in these matters. I just love planes and filming them. As my channel says " the planes are the stars" and just for fun. Im just an amateur trying to spread a little joy for others that enjoy planes. Take a chill pill buddy.
I live under the flight path from Birmingham, have flown from there, but it's still amazing how busy it is.
I first visited in my teens, 50 years ago, when it was still known as Elmdon, and the solitary building and flight tower were on the other side of the site. There were a handful of flights a day, we were meeting someone from Düsseldorf. Just seeing an airplane was an event back then.
I saw the helicopter, thought it was a drone at first, it was so tiny. Wonder why it was there? Seems irresponsible to try to land at the airport with some many alternative landing sites
I read your comment with intrest as I also grew up and lived underneath the flightpath of bhx (by the macadown) and also watched the growth of bhx from elmdon. As I've in previous comments the noise in those days of bac1-11s vicounts etc etc was incredible and the soot too. It was the local police helicopter and is based at the Elmdon side of the airport. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks 😊
@@speedbird0094I live in B26 and often pop over the back of the airport to capture some planes, I think it's a wonderful spot and there are always so many people there, especially at the weekend!
Excellent images. Very good stabilization and great zoom. If you don't mind, could you tell us what filming equipment you used?
I use a Panasonic camcorder. I would say buy the one with the highest optical zoom you can afford 👍
Have flown Emirates regularly to Dubai since 2005 when they first started operating the 380. Usually 1sr class. The difference now to then is tremendous. You basically get your own room and amenities including showers are available.
You know how to make me jealous 😏 maybe one day for me. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching 👍✈👍
But, all in all I love it, this is my hobby, I thank and salute you for effort you put in and show us this wonderful experience,
Thank you for your kind words 🙏 👍👍
Beautiful A-380 take off. I enjoy watching LAX live cam. That helicopter caused a lot of disruption.
Glad you enjoyed it. Birmingham Airport is nothing like LAX but I wish I was 😁
I love LA Flights live too!
@@MsSuzie71 the show is great but the constant chatter gets on my nerves a bit. But yes a great airport with great planes 👍
If this bird had been built 20 years earlier, worldwide travel would have been different. Alas, the 747 owned air travel, hands down.
Also wonder if the Plandemic pushed it into its demise. Absolutely a stunning bit of engineering 👍✈👍
Looks like really busy and good place to watch from 👍👍😀😀
Its not always like this. Birmingham Airport does have its quite spells and its usually a one in one out kinda Airport. Appreciate you watching and your comment 👍
the A380 lands and take off like a bold eagle , huge but so smooth in its maneuver
To this day im amazed when seeing it in real life how it gets off the ground. Thank you for watching 👍
but what kind of bold eagle?
one of those Bald , Bold eagles ?
@@HesTNTonPMS 🤣👍
@mouradel6432 I'm just breakin your balls a little bit
like a BALD EAGLE ! due to its white head ..
It’s nice to see A380 back in service at Birmingham Airport 😊
Yes. Great for the airport and especially the crowds that go to see it 👍
What a Beautiful Arabic calligraphy ❤ painting, it’s the most rare painting with a meaning, appreciate indeed 😂 ya rabbi .
Glad you took time to enjoy it 👍
Had my flight on an a380 (Qantas) last year from london Heathrow to Sydney. Granted, I was in premium economy, but it was one of the best flights I’ve ever taken - in fact it was just the best! I’ve never been so comfortable in my life! I’d fly premium economy on an a380 again over virgin or ba products, and even some airlines coffins, sorry I mean business class (take note BA)
Thank you for sharing your experience on here and glad that this video brought those memories back for you. Thank you for watching. 👍👍
They are doing a FOD check after every HEAVY departure / arrival due to the outboard engines and thrust generated from the beast can tear up the asphalt, blow rocks, grass etc , what I can see the copter had nothing to do with the aborted departure. I believe it was some type of onboard issue that needed to be resolved.
I can only go on what information I was given at the time. You may be correct as this exact plane had an issue a few days before with the landing gear.
Amazing that this even gets off the ground absolutely amazing engineering wow
Couldn't agree more 👍
Beautiful video and what a powerful Camera, The 380 is an Amazing development in Air Technology
Thank you for your kind words and I agree about the 380. Watching it amazes me how it even gets off the ground. Glad you enjoyed the video 👍✈👍

Thank you. A bit of a long one but thought best to leave it as events unfolded. Appreciate you watching and your kind words 👍
Good camerawork tracking it when it eventually took off.

This is very awesome. I didn't know that an aborted Emirates A380 departure recently occurred at Birmingham Airport
Wasn't planned 🤣 thank you for taking time out to watch my video 👍
@@speedbird0094 it is truly captivating
Quite simply a lack of coordination from the control tower which resulted in a misinterpretation of the information given by it to the pilot of the A380 who had to wait his turn! This kind of incident is very dangerous!

@@speedbird0094 ... Subscribed ... All the best for 2024!
Thank you so much and I wish you the very best yourself for 2024.
That fella used enough fuel trundling down the runway to keep my RC turbines flying for a lifetime plus a bit. 😂
🤣🤣🤣
A minimum of a 100 tons is loaded for the return leg,back to DXB.
@@AJ-yw5zy that’ll keep me going for a while. My two burn about 0.3 litres per minute using mixed throttle. Yeah I’d say a lifetime supply right there. 😂
How did BHX ATC allow two vehicle's to drive to the rear of an A380 at take off thrust, the amount thrust is enormous . Be interested to know the safe driving distance is behind an A380.
There must be some guidelines they must follow but something that is worth investigating. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment 👍
No, four engines at take off thrust setting is over 200,000Lbs, going behind that is just crazy, love to hear from BHX ATC or Airside ops for there procedures.
@@speedbird0094 you can see the second vehicle hesitate, and then proceed, just crazy procedure.
I'll check it out for sure soon but im sure the airside vehicles would normally do a runway inspection after the 380 has departed. Once departure had been aborted the vehicles would need to follow the 380 to be behind it when it did finally depart to do their checks. Will try to get a definite answer during the week 👍
@@speedbird0094 Thank you for your continued thoughts on this. The two vehicles where moving at a fast pace left to right directly behind an A380 at take off power, that breaks all the procedures of driving to the rear of turbofan engines under high power each engine is pushing 72,000lbs of thrust X 4. As stated the second vehicle hesitated briefly before continuing on. As an airside driver, and your stream illustration shows any one would question this procedure. Does BHX airside operations do a runway inspection on all A380 arrivals and departures?. Anyone working airside and holds airside driving permit, would question that decision to drive behind the worlds largest and most powerful commercial airplane.
How many 380 flights does this airport handle, and what was the deal with the chase cars?
We have ever only had 1 A380 flight per day even pre-covid. We do get a reasonable number of 787s and the odd 777 daily. Those support vehicles for some reason follow the 380 everytime (bhx procedure i guess) I have several other videos and they are always there. Didnt want my channel to become just a A380 channel. We get such a variety that I want to showcase 😊
12 seconds from brake release airside Ops vehicles enter the active runway, to do a runway inspection following the departure .
It is surprising how quickly they get behind the A380 👍
Lucky the abort was so early in the takeoff roll
Yes I agree as once that gets moving I imagine its quite hard to stop. Thank you for watching 👍
When I read the title I thought I was going to see smoking brakes. Did they even have to hit the brakes here. Sounded like they just let off the throttle. I suppose the mere size of these craft make everything look slow motion.
@@RedBud315 sorry theres no tyres screeching flames etc etc but I'm afraid it is what it is and such an unusual event here. Thank you for watching an appreciate you taking time to comment. 👍✈
Hav to abort before V1
I doubt the turbulence from that light helicopter would have been noticeable. Much less be of any consequence due to the existing winds.
Would a helicopter really create that much wind vortex for the mighty A380? Great video btw.
No the other way around. The 380 would have taken off just before the police helicopter. The only thing I could think off it was so low on fuel it had to take priority. Appreciate you watching and your kind words 👍✈👍
@@speedbird0094 If the helo had been a flight emergency the A380 would have been held until the helo had landed. What happened here was either an ATC screw-up or the helo pilot exceeding his ATC clearance limit and getting too close to the A380. The A380 in any case will generate no wake vortex until airborne, which would have been well beyond the helo.
I appreciate your thoughts here but the real answer is we shall never really know. I carry a radio now and I'd only just started filming when this incident took place. Its provoked all kinds of comments and to think I thought this video was too long to put up at the time.
Better plane than Boing. Beautiful so up close. Looks brand new. Thanks.
Its a stunning aircraft to see up close. Amazing how it gets off the ground really. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment. Appreciated. 👍✈👍
Great Video 👍👍Such a awesome sight the 380 leaving 😀😀
Thank you for your kind words 👍
Actually, you did catch the helicopter… I can see it’s just off to the right of the cockpit. I think it was an aborted takeoff because it looked like they had started to apply takeoff power and then suddenly turned it off. But I’m no aviation expert.
You are correct they did power up. Got covered in grass debris twice 🤣
Wonder what the problem was - seems to have got sorted quickly
It was a police helicopter landing that caused the issue. I didn't see it at the time as I only have a 3 inch screen to look at whilst filming. Hope this helps 👍
@@speedbird0094 surely the police helicopter would have to comply with ATC especially if the aircraft had been given cleared for take off?..would have thought he would have been advised to wait to land until the aircraft had taken off..
@@richardmessenger9474 to be honest I thought the same.
Very cool video ... Safety first, and what a neat aircraft that Journey was ...
Thank you and yes I totally agree. Safety first no matter the length of the delay. Better to get there than not. 👍✈👍
Well worth the wait, love that plane.
Glad you enjoyed the video. It is a marvel to see up close. Thank you for watching 😊 👍
Una maravilla de la ingeniería
Amazing how it gets off the ground 👍
Maybe I'm missing something, but what was the reason for the abort?
I didn't notice at the time as I was filming but a police helicopter came in as the a380 started to take off. 👍

@@speedbird0094 The flag depicted is that of Indonesia, the text does translate in that language.
@@roboftherock thanks for the explanation 👍
Awesome capture! May I feature this rejected takeoff in one of my next episodes? Of course with a link back to your original video. Cheers!
I would love you to 👍👍
They made him go around for the smallies and medium heavies to go first. His wake turbulence would have been too much.
Yes exactly caused a few headaches i bet for ATC and pilots etc 👍👍
Him? Her? Ships are always Hers. Pilot could be a her, presume your 'him' was the captain not the 'bird'.
Another great Video my friend. Awesome 👍🏼✈️‼️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️
Thanks again Rainier. Was wondering whether to choose this up but decided to leave it in its entirely. Glad you enjoyed it my friend.
👍👍✈✈☕☕☕✈✈👍👍
Thanks proceeding my 1 crore batteries .
Welcome rain rembeler.
Incroyable les quantités de carburant qui se consomment juste avant de prendre son envol!
Assez pour faire tourner ma voiture pendant quelques années 🤣
Grazie per il bel video e porgo i miei più cordiali saluti a "Speedbird 009" - Luciano il perugino (Italia) 😀🍀🍀🍀
Thank you for your kind words 👍👍 glad you enjoyed the video
Shorter runway needed for A380 than i would have imagined.Rog.
Our funny undulating runway was extended and completed in 2014 to accommodate the A380s. There is a time-lapse video showing how it was done. I appreciate you watching my video 👍👍
That was not an aborted takeoff. No takeoff power was applied. They taxied down the runway to an appropriate turn off taxiway
Please re watch from about minute 7.30 with the sound on and watch all the debris been blown up.
It used to be normal to spool up engines with full brakes applied then down to idle before the real thing. Accidents have happened because of a failure to use the procedure but maybe it's not common. Minor things can decide to go back and taxi out again particularly with others waiting for take off. BHX aren't new to dealing with 380s.
It's still aborted if you don't go through with it. Which they didn't. Rockets are the same if they abort takeoff time.
@seltaeb3302 No that is not an aborted or rejected takeoff as the takeoff was never begun.
@@geoffreycodnett6570 It was not normal in jets when on runway to go to high power and then go back down.
@brumxplanecrazytube welcome abroad my channel and hope you are enjoying the videos. 👋👍
Do you know why they rejected take off?
@@TheReverses78from what I've been told it was because of the late arrival of a helicopter. Came in just as the a380 was about to depart. The wind vortex would have caused the chopper issues.
@@speedbird0094 ah ok thanks
I love this plane im on birmingham flight path and this comes low by me. Better when its coming direct towards you. Im hoping to fly it this year
Grew up on the flightpath myself (macadown) and have always lived close to Bhx. Where my love of planes comes from 👍✈👍
Speedbird, did you work for BOAC? I flew to Singapore when the A380 was launched (2009?) My favoured airlines for travel to SE Asia used to be Singapore and Malaysian but they now use A350s, so I will have to use Emirates in future. I think they have most of the A380s that were ever made!
No im afraid not. I picked my name as its the famous jumbo/volcanic ash incident. Great pilots and plane and a great story which you can find here on CZcams. 👍
Singapore airlines definitely still uses it from LHR. SQ 319.
Don't understand why your camera follows an airplane until it lines up on the runway to take off, and then when it's taking off, you divert back to see the next plane taxiing up. The whole point of filming these things is to see the take-offs, not the planes taxiing.
I appreciate your comment and I'll try to explain. When this was filmed I'd only just got into filming. Birmingham Airport is usually a one in one out kind of airport. The 380, Qatar and Saudi planes had just returned after the pandemic so were my top priority and there was an unusual amount of ground traffic I basically didn't know where to point the camera. I would hope that if the same situation was to happen today I would handle it a bit different 👍✈👍
Huh? They showed the entire fly out of the next flight after the 380 exited the runway, they just skipped the next one takeoff because the 380 was coming back up the taxiway and it wasn't a very interesting plane that was taking off at the time. They got 3 takeoffs and 4 landings.. skipping one takeoff doesn't take anything away from the awesome takeoffs that they did get.
You make it sound like they kept missing the takeoffs.. they got the good ones, especially the 380 finally getting in the air at the end!
@@speedbird0094Don't worry about it.. you got all the good shots, especially the nice long fly out of the 380 at the end! Awesome footage, job well done!
I appreciate you understanding how and what was going on here. The one plane I wished I seen take off was the Saudi at the very end but the rain was becoming heavy and I had no protection for my equipment. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment 👍✈👍
Again thank for you kind words. What I've learned is that whatever you do you carnt please everyone. I do my best and hopefully people can see some progression from my earlier videos to my later ones. 👍✈👍
Which side of Birmingham airprot is this field on any idea
Where this is filmed from is known as Sheldon County Park. If you google map it it'll show you 👍👍
Why did the Pilot of Qatar Air during take off-roll keep the elevator stick pushed all the way ahead until the V1 position? The wind did not seem to be of any problem to the smaller jet.
Im afraid I wouldn't be able to give you a truthful answer as I don't know tbh. Hope someone here can help you but thank you for watching and taking time to comment 👍👍
BHX more non stops to the US .Thx 🇬🇧🇺🇲👍
Agree totally. Love to see some American carriers at bhx 👍
Some one forget to push all the batteries in the holder properly and give the rubber band anther 1000turnns on the hand crank and tell all the passengers including first class to peddle as hard as they can not to forget peddle back ward Wen they land 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
@@speedbird0094 hi good morning we have at city airport a 747 flight sim the cut the top of B A 747turned it in to a flight sim in a hanger I have be up stair and flew to Canada but to get your hand a a queen flight control perfect have a great day love your site
I think being there was more exiting than watching the video ;-) Even so thump up :-)
Probably right tbh. But thought it deserved to be shared. Thanks for watching though. 👍✈👍
If i had been flying the 380i would have done exactly the same thing as this Captain did .
Thank you for taking time to watch and comment 👍👍
The only thing that's not ugly with the A380, is the pilots paycheck.
🤣🤣 I still think its amazing how it gets off the ground. Seems so slow on take off.
@@speedbird0094 It lumbers down the runway....
