Vapour circles East of Lossie

Post by Tiger 1 » Wed May 03, 2017 6:58 pm

Hi everyone

Noticed approximatley 7 large orbiting vapour circle trails at high altitude over the sea to the East of Lossimouth this morning.

Any of you guys know what aircraft formed them, I was driving Inverness to Aberdeen at the time ( 10am )

Just curious, any help would be very much appreciated.

Also saw these smoke signals in the Moray sky this morning but regret I do not possess the technology to find out what made them. However this afternoon there was continuous sound of some very high fliers (the sky was clear but there was no sign of aircraft) similar to previously when they were practicing dog fighting or dissimilar aircraft training and assume Typhoons were responsible.

Regards

Angus

Thanks for the reply Lossieloon...I was way to far away to have seen what was making them, by the time I reached Lossie the aircraft had stopped orbiting.

Look quite impresive in the blue skies and lovely warm tempretures today.

Suspect his may have been a AWACS but no proof
