Great memories of GIB there. As he's approaching me & my mates would sometimes be on the beach (left hand side as he approached on the Spainish side) watching these planes land. By the time they got that so they were so close. Watching them take off, best view was obvisuly (for those that know the area) is either side of the runway, while the barriers are down. Having said that. Could be abit of a nuisance if one's running late for work!!!
Here's my potato recording of the takeoff from 2006 (apologies for the quality). Filmed from the top of the rock. ruclips.net/video/ZS0AYRt77tY/видео.html
Did that flight a few years back. Loved Gibraltar!
Ah, my former workplace on the right there. Used to work in ATC 88-91, my second tour in the RAF. Nice.

That looks like an unusual low approach, nevertheless nice😁

It's not the landing that's scary its the other aircraft lining up to take off while you are backtracking. Hope they don't do that in bad weather.
It looks like there’s room to build a taxiway.
That sort of thing has never been a problem!
@@hepphepps8356 Good. I'm old enough to remember the Tenerife airport disaster of 1977.
That approach looks a bit flat
Italy ?
No this is Gibraltar actually. Did you not read the heading to the video?
Greenland, dumdum
@@BeeRich33 you're the dum dum on here!! What next?! Iceland I suppose!
@@BeeRich33 Gibraltar line
@@deniaberson7708 Yes. If you look closely, I was joking.
In an illegal airport but never mind 🤔
This land is Spain as well as the waters. Utrecht treaty.

Who cares?
Another sour grape get over it it will never be
Also, rather love the Falklands
