Movements

Have there been any odd movements to/from Manston today. Mrs M saw a very weird aircraft today heading North after possibly taking off from Manston, or perhaps crossing the Channel.

I can identify most aircraft made since the late 1930s* but this one has me baffled .

It was very slow according to our eye witness.

* Except for some of the Russians and Japanese.

Ask Mrs. M if it looked like the picture in this thread: What Was Over Essex?

I suspect that this was the one, she is not entirely convinced.

Thanks for the thought.
