Post virgin!

First time poster!

Has anyone any info on an old 4 engine prop/turboprop that was in the circuit around Prestwick, Scotland, on the 11th June aprox 14:00 local time? Myself and my mate ( ex RAF ) were stumped!

Cheers.

Please take care to try and understand a bulletin board and where you should post before uploading irrelevant data to the wrong place.

G-BMML: the system says you've made 11 posts so I think that disqualifies you from virgin status!

Surely "Spotters Corner" is exactly the right place for a query such as Mike Lima's, isn't it?

Seloco, it was originally posted in R & N and has been moved by the moderators.

Wasn't an Atlantic Airlines Lockheed Electra was it?

Fair enough, but one doesn't of course know that if one comes straight to the Balcony, so

looks rather harsh treatment, particularly for a self-professed virgin!

Spot on!

Cheers, my mate and I were fishing just about 5 miles inland of P Wick and this wee beauty was doing touch and go.
