Runway Visitor Park

I love the Manchester Aviation Viewing Park, If you love anything to do with Aviation then this is a great place to view the many Aircraft which land and take off from the Manchester Airport runway.
You can view the Aircraft from the three raised platforms. Its also home to the Concorde in its own hangar.
It also has a coffee shop. Parking is around £3 an hour.

If I could chose a super power it would be the ability to fly. This place is perfect for those who love the idea of flying.
The purpose-​built Viewing Park offers unparallelled views of Manchester Airports runways, as well as an aviation shop, snack bars, picnic areas and a growing number of fascinating exhibits from the heritage of powered flight.
I mean what other place gives you the chance to see and get on board the only Concorde in the world. You can access the flight deck; a DC-​10 converted to create a genuine ‘on-​board’ feel while never leaving the ground.
It really is a sight… and hard to describe. No wonder it is one of north West’s most popular outdoor attractions. You find yourself with some box seats for watching aircraft take off and land. Trust me you will not be disappointed, with around 600 aircraft movements each day, there will always be something for you to see. There are three raised viewing mounds giving you a clear 180-​degree view over the airfield. So bring that camera if you turn up!!!
For the Concorde I suggest you pre-​book as it is very popular, and will set you back £13. Which I suppose if you love this kind of thing you would probably fork out

The Aviation Viewing Park is located on Manchester Aiport, Uk. The viewing park features two mounts where you can stand, and allows views over the fence, over onto the active runways, and the taxiway which runs past the viewing park. There are plenty of attractions on site, a BA concord, which you can visit for a small fee, and there is a Avro RJ-​65 aircraft on show. The latest additions are the DC-​10, and VC-​10 which are located towards the entrance of the viewing park. There is a change to enter the viewing park, but it is worth the money, and allows great views of the aircraft activity. If you are a large family it may cost you around £10 which could be considered expensive. Overall a great day out for all the family, even ifyou dont like aircraft. There are plently of facilities such as toilets, and a shop serving food, and gift items.
