BOURNEMOUTH AIRPORT | Planespotting | Strong Crosswind
A visit to Bournemouth Airport in Dorset, England on a bright but quite windy day. Aircraft landing and taking off on Runway 08.
Bournemouth Airport (IATA code: BOH, ICAO code: EGHH) (previously known as Hurn Airport and Bournemouth International Airport) is one of the fastest growing airports in the UK and a key national and international gateway to Southern England. It is located 3.5 NM (6.5 km; 4.0 mi) north-northeast of Bournemouth, in southern England.
Returning to more serious plane spotting after a break of many years although I never lost my interest in aviation.
I started plane spotting over 40 years ago at Manchester Airport and occasionally at London Heathrow.

LYNDHURST | NEW FOREST | Walking Tour
Lyndhurst, Hampshire, England, is known as the capital of the New Forest since William the Conqueror established it as a royal hunting ground in 1079. Lyndhurst has been visited by kings and queens staying at the Royal Manor throughout the centuries. Today, Lyndhurst remains the administrative heart of the New Forest.
Situated at the top of the High Street, sits the impressive gothic parish church of St Michael and All Angels. In the graveyard of St Michael and All Angels’ Church can be found the grave of one of the New Forest’s famous residents, Alice Pleasance Liddell. Alice was the little girl who inspired Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ and ‘Through the Looking Glass’. Alice’s connection with the New Forest began in 1880 after she married wealthy Reginald Hargreaves, who had inherited the Cuffnells country estate, near the village.
