This is absolute gold. Talk about a living walk into the past. I remember being at Manchester X10-15 times a year throughout the 90’s and it has always been hard to get an accurate/vivid picture in my head of what I knew deep down it was like. Thanks to you I can now physically see it. Please promise me you’ll never take these historic and quite frankly eye watering videos down. I was 8 as we entered 1990 and I now have the ability to be the plane crazy wee boy I was rather than the plane crazy 40yr old I am now. Look at the old school 747!! The Flying colours 757. I actually flew on this very 757 to and from Tenerife. It wasn’t long after this actually that they were rebranded as JMC. Honestly… What an amazing video/upload. Absolutely love it. ❤
Plane spotting at the Airport hotel in the 80s/90s was second to none. Get down in the corner and get blown away by the engine thrust and I can smell the Kerosene still. Back in the 80's you could get Flydrives to Orlando for less than £50, we once went for 5 days with Airtours for £19 each. Those times will never return.
