I think this was a Beluga, but may've been a Dreamlifter. Over St Helens, Merseyside yesterday.

I'd put my money on a Beluga, doubly so as St Helens isn't a million miles from the Airbus factory in Chester. Always impressive to see them flying, it just doesn't look right, yet…..:)

Beluga! Never seen one, though my colleagues who are doing some work at Chester keep sending me pics...

The Dreamlifters seem to be regulars over the UK.

It is definitely a Beluga. It is in Airbus house colours and is nothing like a Dreamlifter.

defiantly a beluga doesn't look anything like a dreamlifter, with I had more commercialised jets fly by me, I l live near and RAF base so its all military I see the odd 747 coming into land which I find strange. but ill see if I can get some shots with my crappy phone camera when im at school of some helicopters F-14 C-17 747
they are some beautiful planes, they come in to land about 2-3 mile away so they are quite low. when im at school its about 1/4 a mile to the runway so they come pretty much overhead

You'll be lucky to get a photo of a landing F-14... :E

A visit to Iran might bear fruit... :}

They normally work Liverpool approach on 119.85 when going into Chester.
