Saw a very low all white 747 making some low altitude turns near oxford today. Couldn't see any markings on it!

Was it airshow bound or Oxford Training Academy?

Dont think it was inbound to Oxford somehow!! :eek:

It was probably inbound to Brize Norton, carrying out the procedure for runway 26 which involves a fairly low level turn to the south west of Kiddlington back towards Brize.

As to the operator, its anyones guess. Air Atlanta Icelandic?

From friends who have been shoehorned into it I hear that the cleanliness is the least of it's problems......
