Leed/Bradford incident.
It was reported on Sky News on Fri night that Leed/Bradford airport had to be cleared due to a suspicious package found on the PIA plane to Pakistan. Since then there has been no mention of the incident in the media at all. However yesterday at around 16.30 i saw a C17 departing. In the past i've seen Herc's, Wokka's, and even the odd Tornado, but a Globemaster on a saturday afternoon ! I was wondering if anyone would care to speculate as to a possible connection.

Belive the original poster was asking if there's a connection with all the mil
moves, not the PIA suspect package.
