  • COVID-19 has hit the world hard, however there are many people out there that still need help.
    www.justgiving...
    Following requests for this from Aircraft fans, I managed to acquire the correct authorisation from the Tower and from DJI to fly in this airspace.
    This movie shows how quiet Bournemouth Airport is during the COVID-19 lockdown.
    The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) advises against all non-essential travel worldwide until at least 15 April 2020.
    Government guidance says that whether international travel is essential or not “is a personal decision and circumstances differ from person to person. It is for individuals themselves to make an informed decision based on the risks and FCO advice.”

    Thanks for the video. 👍🏻 It’s hard to picture the scale of the effect the lockdown has had on aviation. Just seeing plane after plane just sat there is incredible.
    Also I see the Social Distancing Warriors are out in full effect here in the comments. They should mind their own business; you followed the rules, obtained permission and presumably kept distance from others, while providing news-worthy footage to the public, that for me is enough. Unlike my local park which is full of “exercise” lockdown tourists where it was nearly always empty pre-lockdown.

    • @carlcarter2696
      @carlcarter2696 4 года назад +2

      The airport is being paid £250 per day per plane for these to be parked up. So assuming there are 40 planes they’re looking at around £300,000 income per month.
      The 4Bn number would be the potential value of the planes themselves. Maybe the airports dropoff fees make up the difference haha

    How ironic that Bournemouth now has more aircraft on the ground since it was built (1940) for wartime fighters & bombers.
    Ironic too that with all these modern aircraft, there are no passengers.
