  • if you weren't in the right spot in the right time, you won't see any landing flights, duh.
  • hello otwa...thanks for advice...I should have indicated flights on WIKIMAPIA...I live too far from ockham,lambourne to 'spot'...can you see any?...cheers
  • i dont even live in britain, or even in Europe, for that matter, so have fun plane spotting
  • Hey guys, where's the third runway?
  • we cant see the third runway and total 2 runways
  • The third runway would have been to the north of the existing airport, about where the village of Sipson is now (the village would have been completely destroyed). Plans for a third runway were scrapped in 2010 and building work never started.
