A Morning at Birmingham Airport

Post by Vaqar Khan »

It was a cold (1 Centigrade) but bright Saturday morning today. I had to drive in to Birmingham and decided to take a detour through Birmingham International Airport. Here are some of the photographs from the trip.

Thanks mac777! Yes BHX does have a good mixture of long haul carriers, European scheduled airlines and charter flights to popular tourist destinations.
