Dragon Rapide flew over my house yesterday (15 July) twice, both times I was too slow to get binoculars out, but it seemed to have yellow band on rear fuselage and possibly RAF roundels on wing..

From height and direction probably in/out of Oxford Airport.

Checked Google, I can see info on booking such flights from Oxford but no details of aircraft. Can anyone confirm serial number please?

Many thanx.

G-AIYR (though it doesn't wear its civil reg):

Possibly G-AIYR/HG691 - colour scheme fits and I know from other sources that she was out and about on the 15th.
