Working at Airbus Broughton I see the beluga daily and it still amazes me how elegant it is. Such a great moment for the people of LHR to see it up close and personal
I am watching you now from West Virginia in the United States Nd I want to see the Beluga live its a rare opportunity for me to see this unique airplane and y am really excited to see this event!!!
Darn…I slept through my notification this morning!!! Thank you Jerry, Gilly for covering this for us sleepyheads that just can’t wake up on time!!! You two are the best…watching replay! 🇨🇦✈️👍
1:52:00 I was waiting for you to mention HAM. I'm lucky enough to be a regular visitor to Hamburg and not only do you see the Belugas regularly, you're treated to countless 'undercoat green' freshly assembled aircraft taking off and landing at Airbus' assembly airport by the docks. In fact, such marvels are so regular that my little nephews there are as blasé about it as only ten year olds can be!
A BA source has said that an Airbus team was already onsite for the repairs. These will include structural repairs to the tail cone and APU area - so the parts delivered may be more than a simple stabiliser/elevator unit. And the work will take approximately two weeks.
Usually larger aircraft such as A 380 B747 Beluga Antonov 124 are towed in close proximity to prevent any collision with obstacles. They won't drive, steer the big ones.
Sheer coincidence. While I was on holiday in France last week, I saw one of the other Beluga XL aircraft flying near Saint Nazaire, I knew what it was immediately :)
I was on the A350 landing from YYZ at 10:01am BST @46:00. You can see the wings waving back and forth as the pilot appeared to be battling the gusty winds. Poor kid a couple of rows in front of me wasn’t able to hold onto his lunch.
"So that's what we're gonna do. Any questions? Oh, I forgot: Who's the guy that crashed into the plane in April? OK, you're not going near that thing mate."
I have now done a bit of , late , research. It’s quite a thing. I had never seen it before, didn’t know anything about it , obvs. Amazing plane, as are all the other working , not holiday , planes. Amazing.!!!!

As far as ugly planes go, the Beluga is a beauty! Thanks for the coverage 👍

@@7BJDX I live in Chester and I never tire of seeing them flying low over my home - especially coming in to land. A fabulous sight.
That was sooo good, fantastic. Thank you Jerry and Gilly for these additional shows, looking forward to the afternoon departure. 😊
Beverley George!!! You’re amazing…following your lead!

I'm glad they parked it there actually. As jerry said the police and security were worried about crowding. Good job lads :)
Interesting to see all the airport workers and service cars watching the arrival.
Great for you to see the beluga down south we see it flying over liverpool regularly still great to see it anytime 😊
That coverage was sensational! 🤗🐋🐳
Just watched the show, fabulous, love the Beluga, thankyou both so much for bringing it to us 🌈🥰
I just happened to randomly catch this video this afternoon. Thanks.

There's a bit at 1:48:25 where it sounded like a dolphin or whale sound. I'm wondering if that was deliberate! :D Great video!
Dat was a boydy
The fact that everyone including the pilots probably stopped and looked at the incredible aircraft ❤ wow 🤩
Fantastic show! Thanks Jerry and Gilly
Top work...very enjoyable. Thanks Jerry and Gilly as always.
Well done Gerry and Gilly, great catch. So funny to see all the “yellow jackets” trying to get a photo of it, when they should be working 😊😂
I was watching the livrestream instead working.
Sorry boss :D
Great catch. Something we don't see everyday in LHR.

I am lucky, I live about 4 miles from Hawarden where this plane comes in most weeks.

We all had a whale of a time today!🐳
Brilliant coverage, well done and thanks
Beluga!
Great coverage
Thanks
Yeap….. and I was one of them Yellow Jackets 👋😂
excellent, what's not to love
Off to LHR today! This video sets up the mood!
What a beauty
Team replay ❤
Looks like a flying dolphin
Those engines look too small.Amazing engineering effort.
2:18:25 No probs mate, just get yur drone up and whizz on over there!
Really SHOW and Presenter Both are SUPERB🎉🎉🎉

Not surprised it needs those outboard rudder surfaces. The main vertical stab gets nothing being hidden by that happen at that approach angle.
I wonder how much lift the fuselage contributes…???
Imagine that eventually becoming a commercial airline!
WHAT?? if only i didnt go to school today. I can see the planes landing for heathrow close to me so i woulve had a perfect shot of it
I heard they put this stream on the big screen at Airport Centre.
Thank you Virgin Atlantic for making this possible 😜
Ahhh super stuff guys just watched back bloody forgot all good 👍
I'm surprised that the beluga one engine on each wing and the a380 has two on each wing.
Imagine flying that badboy
The Beluga XL is a flying bottle nose dolphin.
It’s not a small issue 😂 The whole horizontal stabiliser is being replaced.
Thank you for clarifying that. I was wondering why they would fly it in for a piece 3-4 feet long!
2:07:01 Air India a350 new livery
What's that about then? Any idea about the "Vista" design on the tail?
3.18 mate it's a lot bigger than that what's being replaced.
1:49:00 butter landing
What runway will it be taking off from this evening and which direction? I’m gonna go try see it
and what time will it leave?
@@iankemp2638 I’m pretty sure it will leave around 5:30pm BST
@@RomeoZoneX
Yep. Someone else says that to. Thanks.
"So that's what we're gonna do. Any questions? Oh, I forgot: Who's the guy that crashed into the plane in April? OK, you're not going near that thing mate."
How does all that fuel needed fit into those skinny wings?
So the wings are made in Wales and transported by Belugas?
Historical moment
Beluga reg is F-GXLO isn't it?
Where I live I see them often..... Good eh?
is Singapore Airlines using beluga for passenger service?
yeah they are planning a giant first class lounge area with swimming pool
Is that what they used to call Guppy back years ago or am I going mad..?
Only two engines for such a large plane ?
You serious!????
I now know I’m going mad!!!
I have now done a bit of , late , research. It’s quite a thing.
I had never seen it before, didn’t know anything about it , obvs. Amazing plane, as are all the other working , not holiday , planes.
Amazing.!!!!
Why was this beautiful beast visiting LHR ?
I want to be a pilot on the beluga
What time does it depart out of LHR
How old is that hanger ?
Does anyone know if it’s possible to see it depart later today? If so, what is the best viewing location?
Why wasn't it on Flight radar?
What time will it leave?
17:20 scheduled
Many thanks@@Gazzasfifavids
Why was the beluga at Heathrow?
Hi
01:48:42
Where can I go to see a view like that
Chester
But like where can I go on Heathrow to see it take off in 1h
I was at school😢
I now subscribe how do I get to comment?
You'll be able to chat when we go live again for the departure ua-cam.com/users/liveddGsdGJxvJ8? and welcome!
It's obvious ,but nothing looks more like a Beluga than that,not even an actual Beluga 😂
C'mon, get on with it!
Is there only one Beluga ?
Her???
BELUGA DELAYED FOR 1 ONE HOUR!!!
Well you can see how it gets its name, but it’s quite an ugly monster, is it not?
Look's Like a WHALE ?
Hells Bells - That is one ugly looking aircraft.
A new page in the history book, not only LHR , but for BJTV. Well done, Jerry and Gilly top draw 🛬🛬
