Last week I went on a trip to Barcelona to spot at the airport of El Prat! The main reason I went there was because there was a Qantas Boeing 747 scheduled to come in operating a charter flight. The Australian Queen of the Skies is a iconic aircraft, which featured the famous Nalanji and Wunala Dreaming liveries. Every year Qantas flies a group of lucky (and rich) passengers around the world on a world tour. This year Malta and Barcelona were the European places which would be visited during this tour. I've already been to Malta so I thought I'd try out Barcelona and catch the Qantas B747 there. And so I did, along with many Spanish spotters who welcomed the plane into Barcelona! It was VH-OEE which did the honors and landed on runway 25R from Malta. A few days later it departed to Cartagena via runway 25L where I filmed from an incredible spot, enjoying the Queen lining up with the runway and spooling up its four General Electric CF6 engines for a powerful take off!.
During my trip to Barcelona I've been helped by a local spotter called Miguel, who goes as Barcelona El Prat Intl or aerobarcelona on RU-vid with amazing content from Barcelona's airport. He filmed the Qantas landing too from a different spot than me, and we made a little collab using eachothers footage in our video's!
