A spectacularly beautiful flight back home to London from San Francisco. This was my first time onboard a United 777. Unfortunately we weren't off to a particularly good start due to a technical issue, after boarding we remained on the aircraft for a further 90 minutes before push back. Lucky for me I had the row to myself so space to spread out and relax a little more. Once on the move and classic, noisy 777 engine start up and taxi down to RWY28L for departure. Now after take off some absolutely beautiful views of the coastline and the city itself. Turning back on ourselves over the Golden Gate Bridge and Bay Area before climbing away in a north easterly direction towards the Rocky Mountains and Canadian border. Within the first few hours the sun was starting to set. A few hours after that, high above Hudson Bay in northern Canada was treated by some stunning display of the Aurora Borealis. Now on video it really wouldn't show well at all. So I used long exposure on my iPhone and managed to catch some stunning still images which I did include in the video. During the second part of the flight, over Iceland we decended from 38,000ft down to 30,000ft in order to benefit from a strong jetstream! Over 170mph tail wind, pushing us along for the final leg towards the UK. After all of this a spectacular "sightseeing" approach over central London into RWY27R at Heathrow. Londons skyline lit up in the beautiful early morning light.
