BACK TRACKING ON RUNWAY 2, MANCHESTER AIRPORT

Rare footage of a plane back tracking on Runway 2 of Manchester Airport. Usually when the wind is easterly, planes land Runway 05R and take off Runway 05L.
However sometimes to help with take off planes use the longer 05R to take off. In order to do that they have to Back Track along the actual Runway to get to the end and essentially do a U turn and to get into position to take off. Doesn't happen that often and was fortunate to be at the airport when it happened.
A big thank you to the security who stop his patrol vehicle by the perimeter fence to tip us off.
