Our Airbus A319, D-AGWT, waits at EDDK's gate D4 before boarding commences for the flight to England |
Taxiing past the main terminal building on an unusually quiet lunchtime in Cologne |
Departing EDDK on RWY32R via the NOR3B departure procedure |
Passing 4,500ft AGL, just 15 minutes after our pushback from the gate |
Rising above a thick layer of cloud on the border of Germany and Belgium |
We have almost reached our cruise altitude and our passengers can enjoy some planespotting en route! |
You can see from the TCAS that we are entering a very busy stretch of airspace around the Belgium/France border |
Passing through London airspace before we begin our descent, as we catch sight of a Thomson B757 which has departed from London Gatwick |
The approach checklist is well underway by the time we pass over East Midlands Airport |
Descending through FL660 as we approach Manchester's RWY23R via the DAYNE1B arrival procedure |
Moments from touchdown at Manchester |
Passing over the boundary fence behind Manchester's RWY23R |
Several airlines on display at an always busy EGCC |
Parked at the gate and aircraft shutdown is almost complete, moments before the FlyBe Embraer in the background begins it's pushback |
