Brize Norton today 12/02/13
Hi there, long time lurker here!
A friend of mine saw a large 4 engine transport take off from Brize about an hour or so ago. I don't know the exact time. I thought it may be a C17 but he said no it had civilian markings.
Any ideas? Many thanks in advance.

Nippy,
Have a look on www.fightercontrol.co.uk at the spotters section for Brize. Someone on there may know if they come in on a schedule or ad hoc basis or both.

I am so sorry for bothering to ask the question, I had no idea that AN124 were common at Brize. I had already established that it wasn't a C17 so there we go. I won't bother in future. Thanks to those who weren't taking the mick

It was a perfectly reasonable question, this is the spotter's section after all.
Do what I do and just ignore the silly replies in this section (and others), there's plenty of decent members that will give sensible replies if they know the answer.
