Dash 8 in Salisbury Plain
 
I was scanning the airwaves today and was listening to Solent. They were working an aircraft (Dash 8?) that inadvertently penetrated Salisbury Plain. Anyone know anymore? :confused:

Not specifically, but there was a lot of weather avoidance going on in this part of the World this morning.

Heard one SOU inbound divert to BRS after failing to find a way through a line of Cb's to the North of the field.

Not so funny mate, as I believe there was some form of living firing exercise going on. :ugh: Could hear it from miles away apparently.

Don't worry Standby, so long as we hit one of theirs, and not
one of ours!! Don't you know there's a war on?!! :p

Anyone who shoots down a Dash 8 deserves a medal.

The fecking thing rarely gets airbourne!

I think it was nearly a 'blue on blue' (i think that's what the US calls it)!!
