Not a bad spot for a little light plane spotting. Mine's a Guinness.

Ohhh nice, if a little noisy I imagine, not the place for a quiet Sunday afternoon pint.

It does, however, have to be the perfect venue for a summer social, alcohol and planes, what more could a V-Flyer want.

Drinks, planes - it does sound the ideal venue for a social! [:p]

That is brilliant, the noise just makes it more exciting. Ooh I want to book a flight NOW! Joking aside, it reminds me of when we used to go to Lydd Airport when I was a child to watch the planes. In those days it was Dan Air going to France I think; I used to wave at the plane and dream of the exotic places they were going.

Its a great little place hey. Love the sound of those engines!

Although Neil I think the best place for a summer VF social is SXM, they even have a little beach side bar there that has the plane arrival details. Get enough of us going and we could charter VS to fly us there! I was going to post the videos but we have all seen them. McBenjamin I believe has been on a couple of trips to experience it.

Of course Manchester Airport has featured in a previous V-Flyer PCP[y]

Being January, we all ran off to the Trafford Centre to warm up after visiting Concorde[:D]

Exactly what I was thinking, though a summer day please.

Yep, when we were there for the social on Jan it was a bit chilly for a beer garden, even for most alcohol obsessed V-Flyer.

There are so many more things, but as this is a family site, I'll refrain from mentioning them [:D]

Manchester. Home of the Red Devils. Lovely little video, that.
