Over Tile Cross, a huge Airbus A380 of the Emirates Airline roars up and away from Birmingham Airport. At busy times, planes seem to be taking off every couple of minutes. Noisy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airbus_A380

An A380 Airbus has flown over the River Cole near Tile Cross, east Birmingham
