Re: c130 over wellingborough
According to https://bzzspotters.blogspot.co.uk/sear ... inate=true ZH889 was the only C-130 flying.
Was it flying quite high at 20,000 plus ft?
My FlightAware ADS-B in Warwickshire didn't pick any RAF C-130s that day.

ZH889 landed at Brize at 19:30 and came in from SE from over France according to this post . RRR5731 seems to be a regular flight from a warmer climate area .

Checked the rest of the site but can't find any mention of a C-130 on that day over the UK . There was the C-160 Transall ( 51+06 ) that departed Brize at around 1pm according to the Brize Log but not sure which way it went when it left , and it's only got 2 engines .

I logged a C130, 96-7323 on 4/11 seen from Northampton but don't have the time or recall which way it was heading

Hi Raptor22,
I see that you asked this question on the day and didn't get an answer.
Judging by the positions reported at 12.09, I would think that it was probably the 2nd one that you saw - 96-1006, which went on to Prestwick.
Cheers,
Bob
