Airbus Beluga ST 5 Final Ever Landing - Retiring At Chester Hawarden Airport

Описание: The Beluga has been a workhorse of Airbus for decades, flying parts, machinery and personnel across the network to various final assembly points.
With the newer Beluga XL's now being used almost exclusively, the time for the Beluga ST's retirement is now here. Slated to be the last arrival of the type into Chester Hawarden Airport and therefore the UK as a whole, it's a sad day.
The plan is turn it into a museum piece but who knows what will be in store for Beluga 5

Filmed at Chester Hawarden CEG on January 29th 2026

Information about Manchester Airport:
Situated in the North West of England Manchester Airport is a popular choice for holiday makers and business travelers alike. As plane spotters we get treated to many different airlines and aircraft with the amazing ability to see them up close at many locations including Southside, the runway visitor park, the airport pub and many more. We see it all from the Emirates A380 take off to Ryanair landings (you can decide if they're hard landings!). There are few other airports where you can get up close and see inside the cockpit of Etihad airways or a British Aiways A320 all in the space of one morning. We are the best place to catch live arrivals and departures at Manchester Airport.
