The Australian Flag Carrier (QANTAS) A380 arrives at London Heathrow Airport flying very low overhead as she makes her landing on Runway 27L.

Nice framing, but a little shaky at the end. You might try some stablization techniques to tighten it up...could make for some nice stock footage.

The reason it was a little shaky at the end was because of the aircraft's massive down-draft. It was much more powerful than I expected and I nearly ended up in the main road (2 steps behind). Thanks for the comment though (",)

That's impressive. How did you get security to let you get so close to the landing?

Well this spot is outside of the airport grounds and not very far from a housing estate. The security and police are pretty relaxed with spotters providing they don't get too close to the airport perimeter fence - then they get a bit nervous.
