An Aeroplane?????
C'mon, if you are spotters you should be able to identify it from either noise or silhouette..................
In fact I think you will find it was........
One of the Aurora fleet support aircraft, it carries a vast amount of tools, spares, engineers and weapons. They sneak in and out of civy airports late at night so that it attracts less attention....
Oh, Bugger.
