I have been a regular visitor to the East Midlands Airport at Castle Donington since it opened in 1964.
Much has changed. Freight provides a large part of the movements at the airport and freight requires freighters.
Early to late evening is probably the best time to see the comings and goings taking place.
‘DHL’ have a massive facilty at the EMA at the West end of the runway whilst ‘UPS’ are based East of the passenger buildings and apron.
The other operators featured use either the ‘DHL’ or ‘UPS’ bases.
Thanks to friend John Beastall for all the additional infiormation.
