When Manchester Wakes ✈️ Beautiful Narrow Body Departures on Runway 23L

Описание: 🎄 A warm festive message from Start Aviation ✨
As the year draws to a close, we’d like to wish everyone who celebrates a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you for spending your time runway-side with us, sharing the calm moments, the powerful departures, and the simple joy of aviation. Here’s to clear skies, peaceful mornings, and many more unforgettable aircraft moments in the year ahead.

🌅 The morning begins in near silence.

Birdsong drifts across the airfield as runway lights glow softly — and then, one by one, the engines come alive.

Filmed runway-side at Manchester Airport, this calm, cinematic video captures a sequence of narrow-body departures from Runway 23L, starting in full daylight and gently easing into early dawn—not dark, but dim enough for the runway lighting to shape the scene.

Positioned at the turn-on ramp, every aircraft is shown in full: the slow roll onto the runway, the quiet pause, engines spooling from stillness, and a smooth, unhurried rotation into the Manchester sky. With calm conditions and barely a breath of wind, the soundscape remains intimate — birds between movements, then pure jet power as each departure takes its turn.

easyJet, Ryanair, TUI Airways, Jet2, British Airways, and Lufthansa City all feature in this peaceful morning flow. No rush. No chaos. Just aviation at its most honest — calm, controlled, and quietly powerful.
