High-flying heavies over Birmingham
Here are some of the constant stream of planes which pass high over Birmingham and Solihull every day heading south, mainly to London and Paris. All the common large airliners are included: Airbus A330,A340,A380 and Boeing 747,767,777,787.

Altitudes are between about 24,000 feet and 39,000 feet (4.5 and 7.5 miles)

I used FlightRadar24.com to identify all of them, so if there's one you're interested in let me know. The star has to be the Air New Zealand 777-300ER in All Blacks livery.
