Night flight over Bury.
Lay awake at 01.00, shift work doesn't half mess up your sleep pattern, I often hear the drone of what sounds like an old, slow twin over Bury, north of Manchester. This happens within a few minutes most nights so I was wondering if it was an Air Atlantique Dakota doing a newspaper run to lands up north or is it something different entirely? Not complaining by any means, just curious. Incidentally, if there was a spare seat one night for a lowly PPL...............!
Are there any F-27s or Shorts 360s flying regular mail routes at Night over the north west of England? If yes, then it could be one of those.
Won't be a DC-3, might be an Electra or it could be a surveillance aircraft.
