Emirates 777 spray and dust storms!
Three landings at Birmingham Airport/BHX/EGBB in summer 2013.
The first one is the most spectacular water spray performance I've seen to date. The plane approaches through a heavy shower which is just starting to leave the airfield, emerging from it into the brightness with reverse-thrust full on, looking like a dog shaking itself after a bath!
The third one must make the Emirates plane feel at home as its wake kicks up clouds of dust from the desert-like runway extension site (please note that the WIND direction is left to right).
