Aircraft over Farnboro 29/8 @ 2100BST
Just seen an aircraft heading NW over Camberley at 2050BST then about 5 minutes later turn S over Farnboro at 3000 to 5000ft. I think it was a high wing, fixed wing aircraft, single or multi engines, unsure.
The very distinctive feature was that the underside was lit in flourescent blue lighting!
Never seen thelike before - anyone else see it or know what it was?

Could have been the Aerobility aircraft that performed a flypast at the Paralympic opening ceremony. Looks like it was a Tecnam twin.
Just a guess though.

TECNAM P2006T G-TECT, twin Rotax.
Did a fly-by at Blackbushe without the pyrotechnics....and much lower than 3 to 5. Returned to Fairoaks.
Well done, Aerobility! A Lasting Impression. A pity Channel 4 missed it...

Was wondering what I saw earlier this evening, my friend and I saw it and looked at each other in surprise. 
Reminded me of "The Fast and Furious"

Surprised no-one spotted it doing fully-illuminated test flights at Fairoaks last Tuesday and Thursday or the two full dress rehearsals at the Olympic stadium on Sunday and Monday.
