Secret Flight Over Manchester UK 16.04.08
 

Anybody know what was flying over MAN yesterday afternoon?

ATC very secretive and all departures routings altered at last minute with no explanation.

Probably twin engine and grey

Are the CIA still doing rendition flights?

Maybe Willie Walsh was up visiting and they wanted to keep you guessing so you couldn't shoot him down..... :ok:

It wasn't a Chinook off to another stag-do was it??

Assume you heard ATC being 'secretive' so what was the callsign?............. or were they whispering? :rolleyes:

it was probably a watch manager going home for a kip after their shift, didnt want to be woken up by the noise of the departures :}

We're not telling you. Its a secret.:ugh:

If I told you, I'd have to kill you :(

Can't be a secret now though. Was it PM on his way to New York?

Mancunian causes ATC Chaos!!

Is that rig fitted with TCAS?

If it was so secret wouldn't this thread have been deleted by SIS?

Aurora? :hmm: Did you see oscillating streaks of light?

...twin squirrel? :p

where there is smoke there is fire.......................:\

Probably twin engine and grey

Could it have fitted the description of a certain Cessna Caravan??

Silly me. I always thought that Cessna Caravans only had one engine
Right. I'm on leave...but I think that Manch was on Easterlies" soooo ...Southbounds [aka] Listos One per "vortex" interval.
"Other" departures...ditto.
There "may" have been a wildy...[lost a/c]. There "may" have been a special flight.....Photo survey...Calibrator or even a UFO

Lots and lots of Aeroplanes.

How do you know?

'Fraid not - Cessna F406 twin also referred to as Caravan (if you want to be absolutely correct Caravan II. )
