The AN 12 left our shores about 2 hours ago flying out of Prestwick.

Beech 1900 N208GL just droned over towards the continent out of Brum, slightly unusual type for me...
|
An hour later and the B1900 is powering through Germany. It originated in Greybull, Wyoming a couple of days ago. Something in the grey matter is stirring and I seem to recall the same (or different frame) doing the same type of long journey in the last 2-3 years. I flew on a few of them in the USA some years back on some feeder airline in the Western states. Seemed a bit susceptible to the lumpy air, although maybe just my luck!

For N208GL next stop is Belgrade.

Is there an oil spill? The 727 G-OSRA has taken off from Hurn and now doing the same at 475ft.

Also B200 G-RAFL orbiting with them at 1400' - curious! Are you able to eyeball them, wondering if the 737 is higher than it's reporting?

Wednesday evening Norfolk offering 2 x USAF C130s working in close formation at Sculthorpe with Osprey in the vicinity and 4 x Eurofighters in the area..
|
Re the low flying stuff to the west of the Isle of Wight, this part of a two day exercise so they will be at it again today. Just wish they would come over my place on the north coast of the 'island'!
|
BRO27 (the Oil Spill Boeing 727) has just departed BOH and is heading for the IoW.
Yesterday it did 12 holds at low level. |
NASA's 747SP in the last hour of it's last flight from/to Palmdale California.
|
I'm up in Northern Suffolk and have seen nada. Zilch. Not a thing... apart from an Islander. Where have all the Ospreys gone...? They are flying again. Still, I'm here till Tuesday.
|
Only saw one Osprey over East Anglia Thursday evening,no other USAF/RAF obvious activity.Coming ahead to Friday Morning and I've just had a look at Harbour Harbour webcams and we have dense fog which might restrict activity !!

When I lived at Diss there was a low-level corridor that passed over the old airfield at Fersfield. Roughly north to south if I remember rightly. You might get lucky !
