2 HOURS of The BEST LANDINGS & TAKEOFFS of 2020 | Melbourne Airport Plane Spotting [MEL/YMML]

As 2020 draws to a close, its a great time to look back and reflect on the year that has passed. This has undoubtedly been a tough year for most of us and the aviation industry has been one of the most effected industries of the pandemic. Despite this, Melbourne Airport has still managed to host a large variety of airlines and aircraft throughout the year!

This video features most of the rare aircraft and airlines that have visited Melbourne this year along with some of my favourite shots I have filmed throughout the year! Its also important to note that this video is composed in chronological order, starting off with a lovely sunrise and slowly transitioning into the night!

Without further ado, I wish everyone a Happy New Year and all the best for 2021!

Some highlights Melbourne saw in 2020 is:
-China Southern's Inaugural A380 service
- Bamboo Airlines repatriation flights
