Episode One throws light on the world of long-haul flights – from the 747, now in its 50th year, to the brand new A350s, the next generation of long-haul aircraft. Our team goes on the lookout for these along with some of the most interesting cargo planes out there, notably the 'Beluga', the A300-600 ST freight plane with a unique nose not unlike the aforementioned whale. Planespotting Live brings you a snapshot of all the planes up in the sky during the hour, providing analysis and context as we go, and revelling in this unique and wonderful world.
Peter Snow and Andi Peters present the second programme of Planespotting Live where their attention turns to spotting as many of the workhorses of the sky - the short-haul planes.
Peter Snow hosts the final episode of Planespotting Live from East Midlands Aeropark. Tonight, we are looking at military planes, the fastest and most innovative of them all.
