Have you seen this ? ………..
WOW …..a bit scary although, I shouldn't be surprised. Our lounge leads into our conservatory and, when you sit in the lounge with the conservatory doors open, you can see that video through our conservatory glass roof, but in real time !!!!! The planes are all going into or coming out of Stansted. { luckily they are still very high in the sky, so you can't hear them, but there are LOADS of them, criss - crossing the skies !! }
Love this song from Moulin Rouge and Nicole.
P.S : Sorry about the falling snow interfering with the air traffic !!!!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat's happening?
I cannot believe that there is so much going on up there in the skies Marsha !!!! XXXX
DeleteThis is an incredible video! Amazing what can be captured these days. I just loved Moulin Rouge. Nicole Kidman has the sweetest singing voice.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images as always. Are you ready for the holidays?
Jane xx
It is amazing and a little scary at the same time !!
Delete…. and, I am actually ahead of myself regarding Christmas { I shall regret saying that !! }
I shall be over to see you soon Jane …. sorry for not commenting for a while. XXXX
Amazing images
ReplyDeleteI thought so too Rick. XXXX
DeleteYou always bring the distinctive Jacqueline touch to any subject matter! It's good to be reminded of the glamour and triumph of flight.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty shallow Mise …. I like pretty pictures !!
Delete….. and, I've been on a few flights that are lacking in the glamour department !!!! XXXX
No wonder Air Traffic Controllers suffer nervous-breakdowns at work. I had a friend who had to walk out of a simulated training course as an ATC, because he couldn't cope with the pressure - even simulated!
ReplyDeleteHi Tom,
DeleteOur daughter-in-law's brother is a pilot and he say's that it gets pretty busy up there in the skies …… I can imagine the stress that those ATC's are under.
…. and, what perfume will you be wearing tonight ? ….. eau de coq au vin ? XXXX
We played being ATC's in the office the other day. We cut up slips of paper and passed them across the desks and selected which one we wanted, which pilot could speak English, which plane colours we liked etc, It was such fun XXX
DeleteNot all the images appeared on my iPad . . . (I will view on my lap top later) . . . loved the falling snow though . . .
ReplyDeleteNever mind Lynne …… it's not that good !!!! I like the falling snow best !! XXXX
DeleteThe view from your living room must be spectacular and no doubt you dream of places to visit.
ReplyDeleteI admire Air Traffic Controllers and know if I had to do it I would starve.
That looks like a cosmetic case the lady is carrying with her handbag. I remember owning one
Helen xx
We have lived here for 28 years Helen and, every year, there are more and more planes going over….. I admire the ATC's too.
Delete….. and, I have still got a vanity case like the one that lady is carrying { mine's oval } I have had it since I was about 8 !! XXXX
danke für die tollen bilder und einen schönen mittwoch wünscht angie
ReplyDeleteDank Angie ...... haben eine schöne Woche. XXXX
DeleteThis is amazing....love from me Ria.....x!
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing isn't it Ria…….. so many planes !! XXXX
DeleteI find that all a bit scary too! They say that working for air traffic control is one of the most stressful jobs you can do, after seeing your film clip I'm not surprised!
ReplyDeleteMakes me wonder how they manage to get all the planes on the ground safely at all. Loved Moulin Rouge. Nice collection of photos you have found too! xx
I know …… it is amazing how they all land, take off and taxied to the right places. I certainly wouldn't want to be an ATC !! XXXX
DeleteL'envol vers les rêves ...quelle belle perspective !
ReplyDeleteMagnifiquement mis Christelle ..... une semaine heureuse de vous. XXXX
DeleteHi Jackie,
ReplyDeleteIt is scary! I must say I never gave it any thought. I think I will not do it now either. Otherwise I won't sleep at night, living close to Rotterdam/ The Hague airport :-) Fortunately the runway is in another direction!
Have a lovely evening!
Madelief x
Oh Madelief ….. I hope that I didn't worry you !! When you consider how many planes fly in and out everyday with very few accidents and, they say it's the safest form of transport. It just looks a bit scary in that video !!
DeleteWishing you a lovely evening too. XXXX
I've noticed recently lots of very short, bright red, vapour trails in the eastern early morning sky. The planes fly in all directions, very high up. If I had a half-decent camera I'd take some snaps.... maybe I'll try anyway. Love the toy plane.
ReplyDeleteI have definitely noticed more and more air traffic over the years Cro ……. and, take some photos ….. I have a big, complicated camera but, my little Sony takes some really good shots.{ Isn't that a lovely image of the little boy in the vintage toy plane? } XXXX
DeleteDear Jackie,
ReplyDeletea very impressive video - and yes: a bit scary too... So many people flying around (too cheap for all of us to fly, I think - air pollution). And the quality of life is suffering from it: in Hamburg we lived in the poshest area possible - Elbchaussee - and the airplanes just came over the villas (and sort of manors in parks) - starting at 6 o'clock in the morning - and some unallowed even earlier - until midnight. Over 120 flights some days - and sometimes one - almost - could see the white in the eye of the pilot. They told you: "Ah, you get used to it", which was true in a way - one didn't notice it in daily life, BUT one got nervous. When I was in London - as Hamburg a city where one cannot flee into a special zone without air-traffic - I heard it in Fulham - and thought: "Good god - thanks I am away from that now in Berlin". (Very inconsistent, as I came by air...) Munich was much cleverer: built the airport wide outside, you have to travel a while (of course the few people there are not happy).
It's hard to believe that so many planes come in and out of the UK Britta ……… we have lived here for 28 years and I know that the skies have got busier and busier……. must be a nightmare for Air Traffic Controllers. Lets hope that they all get a good nights sleep !!!!! XXXX
DeleteWe seem to get them over us at night - you can hear them especially in summer with the windows open - I think we are on the flight path to East Midlands Airport - but I actually find them rather soothing - strange but true. Love that picture of the chic slender lady by the plane - - I used to have a vanity case like that with all the little pockets inside - do people still use them I wonder.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind them either Elaine and we can't hear them …. they actually look very pretty at night with their twinkly lights !! …. and, I still have my oval vanity case that I had when I was about 8 !!!! XXXX
DeleteActually now I come to think about it we used to call them train cases - obviously harking back to times of elegant travel maybe on the Orient Express!
DeleteJackie, that crazy guy left a comment on my blog. If he hates women so leave us alone. A real nut case. Loved the post, and let me tell you, that DRONES are going to cause lots of crashes, unless they ban DRONES. Yvonne on the soap box again Haha
ReplyDeleteHe's been here before Yvonne …. I don't even bother to delete it !!!! Hope you are well and, how's Renée and that new husband of hers ? Do you think she will show us some wedding pictures ? It must be getting cold in Maine ….. did you have snow like New York ? XXXX
Deletewow...crazeeee!! it's a miracle we all survive the flights we take...those people who work the towers are real heroes....
ReplyDeleteThey really are Cynthia …. I certainly wouldn't want their job !!!!! XXXX
DeleteThanks so much for the comments. That photo of the little girl is gorgeous. She looks like a Fairy or Angel. The weather her is just crazy it goes from 60 degrees to the teens. Snow and Ice and now
ReplyDeleteit's melting like mad. Stay warm and Healthy, I am doing my shopping on the net. Too many people out there with colds, and flu. Have a great Holiday season. Don't fly.
yvonne
Hi Yvonne,
DeleteI do most of my shopping online. It makes everything so much easier, especially at Christmas.
……. and, you take care if you go out ….. you don't want to fall on the snow and ice. XXXX
