Yesterday afternoon about 15:15 I saw and heard a large rear engined aircraft. Cloud was scattered at about 2000’ so not a clear view. Aircraft was at about 2500 to 3000 feet and very noisy. About 10 miles north of Shoreham Airport. Think it might have been the oil spill 727.

It was, as you thought, one of the oil response Boeing 727, G-OSRB
