    Filmed from the famous Mrtyle Avenue, where planes fly low over the residential area. Its a controversial topic as for me and many other aviation enthusiasts, its a dream area to live in but for most, it's noisy and unideal.
    I filmed this back in September of 2021 on a rare sunny London afternoon. To capture the wonderful landscape and scene of the aircraft flying so low over the houses I had to really pull back the zoom when recording to fill the frame correctly.
    London Heathrow is one of the worlds busiest airports, with hundreds of flights in and out each day. It is the hub for major airline British Airways and is destination airport for some of the biggest airlines across the globe including Emirates, Qantas, Virgin Atlantic and so many more! With so many flights, it makes London Heathrow one of the major bucket list airports for plane spotters to spot at, as well as being famous for its incredible backdrop of local houses during arrivals as seen purely in this video!

    There's a very famous incident with a British Airways 777 flying on that exact approach running into a fuel issue resulting in a loss of thrust in both engines, the pilot very very narrowly avoided theses houses and landed just short of the runway, No deaths thankfully and only 2 injuries.

    I remember back when I was working construction over the summer last year. We were adding an extra floor to an apartment block and I was helping out with the plumbing. Every time I was on lunch break for around an hour, I'd get my food, go right to the top of the roof on the scaffold, and just sit there and eat while these massive planes were landing right above my head. The apartments were right next to runway 27R, if I remember correctly. That was the best job ever.

    I know this street and I’ve visited to watch aircraft, amazing location.The houses are very attractive and well maintained, built before Heathrow Airport became a major airport.There is no flying at night so residents will have uninterrupted sleep. The take offs and landings are rotated around the airport every few days so that residents are not subject to constant aircraft flying overhead.Great footage.

    My grandparents owned a detached house in Hounslow, and they had a large pear tree in the bottom left of the garden. These aircrafts used to fly directly over it, and as children we used to believe the pilots used that tree as a guide line for the runway. Happy memories, expect its long gone by now. Garden also had an air raid shelter in it. Another story was of a doodlebug heading right towards the back of the house with my grandparents and dad watching from the rear windows, when it cut out and headed directly at them. Then a gust of wind took it, and it landed and exploded in a nearby field. Just as well otherwise my self and 4 other siblings, and approx 25 (Yes lose count as we all scattered across the globe) other offspring wouldn't be alive today.

    As a pilot, take offs and landings are the most dangerous times. If it were up to me, I'd make it a law that no housing areas within a mile of airports! Watching these planes on final approach, if something were to happen, even more lives would be lost. It's bad enough when innocent people in the plane die, but to involve those being in their homes............. tragic.

After that every 3 minutes the planes were coming into land so I didn’t get any more sleep. I could not live anywhere near that airport as the noise was horrendous. I guess the residents must get used to the noise.

    I lived in San Diego for 42 years and was a plane spotter in my younger days. While the planes fly low over a certain area of the city, they don’t fly 100 ft over any buildings. The closest they fly is to the parking garage previously mentioned, which is about 100 yds from the end of the runway. There is about a 50-75 yard clearance above that structure. There is no denying it’s dangerously close and pilots complain almost constantly. I heard many years ago that airlines purposely hire ex navy carrier pilots for the SD route because of the building clearances and the shorter than usual runway. If you’ve ever landed in SD, they descend quite quickly after clearing that parking garage. It can be a little daunting for people who don’t like flying. But on another note, I really liked having the different airbus models ID’ed. I’m not familiar with airbus too much so it was a treat. Thanks for the great vid.

      The brain simply takes no more notice after a while. I lived in a flat right on top a busy railway line for a while. Trains thundered past at high speed every few 10 minutes. If you were on the phone you had to interrupt the conversation because it got drowned out. The first week it drove me nuts. A couple of weeks later I didn’t really notice the trains anymore. A few months in, I woke up in the middle of the night while staying in my very rural village home. The reason, no trains. The lack of the regular noise woke me up 😅

You’re right, when you live so close & on the Heathrow flight path you really become so accustomed to the noise every 5 minutes or so that you almost don’t notice it. If you’re talking when a plane goes over you automatically raise your voice without realising it! I moved away from London for over 40 years but moved back to a different part of London 11 years ago. If I ever go near Heathrow now I really notice how noisy the planes are, something that never bothered me before!
