Jumbo low and slow Bristol Channel

[henry_crun]

At 1500 BST (1400 zulu) today a 747 flew west over Weston super Mare low and slow - a few thousand feet with all the droopy bits drooping. Stayed low out over Steepholme and turned a few degrees north towards South Wales.

Too far off to read markings but wingtip winglets so possibly -400?

Anyone know what it was or what it was doing, please?

Inbound Cardiff for maintenance with BA? Or possibly on airtest after maintenance with BA

G-BYGG being ferried from Heathrow to Cardiff as BA9171, just use the playback facility on FR24 and set it to 14.00 UTC
