As far as I know, the route is still going, but with so few Emerald Sheds up and running at the moment you never know! (I don't work there anymore, so my info is a bit secondhand.)

The German Shed that operates through Coventry routes EDDF-EGBE-EDDF (f&t Frankfurt) as EXT111, occasionally there is an additional flight with a Beech 99 (usually EXT113) if the load exceeds the capability of the Shed. Also, Nightexpress operate out of Coventry f&t Eindhoven with a Be99

Hiya BRL,
I think you may be hearing the air contractors flight 7001 which leaves STN @ appx 22.00 4 nights a week for CDG.It returns at appx .03.45 to STN then goes on to DUB.
I too hear this at night( especially when the windows are open!!)and was listening a while ago to ATC and could hear the droning sound right above and on their transmission so I found out what it was.
Think it is a Hercules--have a look at their web site --its fab---apparently they do contract work for FEDEX to CDG.
My best hour is 21.00 to 22.00 when the 747s+A340s go overhead to CPT/JNB and days when LGW deps go off 26L to SFD!

Hi all, Im the pilot of that flight. We fly a taiwanese made, chinese sub assembled Windshear Banshee from the southeast to northwest every morning to chase the sunrise for MOD approved meteorological experiments.
Apologies for waking you up but it is of vital importance in the fight against international sun burnage.
God bless cheap eastern sub assemblies

We have an F27 that leaves BHX at 2155 for CDG and returns at 0450 local. Callsign is "1XH" to CDG and "2XH" for the return trip. Both the A300 and the F27 are on the FedEx feeder work into CDG.
