These are all ten landings on runway 15 in a 20-minute period at BHX. The gusty 16 knot crosswind from the right was similar to the one which created some difficulties for pilots in video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN27CUrdow4. In at least a couple of the landings here extra thrust had to be applied on the approach because of sudden speed drops due to the wind conditions - listen how the pilot whacks on the power from about 1 minute 20 seconds in the fourth landing (Monarch A320).

The planes in order are: Airbus A321, Boeing 757, A321, A320, AT-72, A321, Boeing 737, A320, Boeing 777, 752.
