Hyde is about 9 miles North-East of Manchester Airport and is directly under the most frequently used flight path for landing aircraft. Being in the foothills of the Pennines it's a lot higher than the airport and the aircraft are usually relatively low when they pass over the town. They frequently pass right over my house and on a nice sunny day in summer (perhaps I should say THE nice sunny day in summer!) I sometimes sit in the back garden taking photos of the passing planes. The photos below are of the Emirates Airbus A380 which flies in and out of Manchester every day on its way to and from Dubai. They're taken using a 90-300mm zoom lens.
