What aeroport's do you live by

[lew!]

Bit of a random thread, Lol. I was going to post in the flight simulator forum but thats a game forum... so yeah

Post what aeroports you live close to :P

I live right by filton (EGTG for people who play fs lol) and i can look out my window and see the planes take of lol. TBH it gets annoying because they are usually planes that are just carrying letters for the royal mail.

Thread moved from Discuss anything by --ss-- (Forum Super Moderator): There are sub forum's for a reason ;).

Phoenix Sky Harbor is the nearest international one to me, it's still really close though.

There's William's Gateway - which is practically on the same street as me, only small planes take off from there, although i've seen MD-83s there on occasion, there's Luke Air Force Base, some of the planes taking off from there are pretty interesting to watch, they fly incredibly low over my house.

[Dan2nd]

Heathrow, London is the closest one it takes 20 minutes to get there for me and Gatwick, London takes about 40 Minutes I also sometimes fly from London Luton Airport which takes about an hour and a half to get to.
