Noted departing Shoreham Northbound around 11:40
As usual - nothing on ads-b.
Any offers? Thanks, Rob

Noted on FB's Shoreham Airport site as 'Jackal 17'.
It's serial would be a bonus.

Thanks 100arw, that narrow's it down somewhat then

Both ZJ783 and ZJ785 returned home from Woodvale yesterday afternoon. P. 100arw, yes I saw that - unfortunately I only spotted it when it was already South abeam so didn't see if it crossed MAN's approach. My first distant frame was at 13:17 so it was probably a bit early to tie with Yorker's post....

ZJ780 was over Sale Water Park at 1314 heading in a southerly direction.

Thanks Yorker - much appreciated - Rob

Seen South abeam Manchester Airport @ 13:18 heading SW at around 1,000 feet
Any offers please, MTIA, Rob

Thanks Les - you've solved my earlier query re the one marked '56', Rob

Stopped briefly around 6pm 18th Sept and noticed one (presumed ex RAF Herc) tail on had the grey rudder, but also a 2/3rds grey fin with a large white '56' painted on it. Can't see it noted in the excellent logs above so any offers on it's I/D? MTIA, Rob

Noted outside the East end Hangar, appeared to be without it's tailplane/rudder and at least it's starboard engine. Possibly on a trailer but hard to see as between buildings/bunds and the heat haze was diabolical. MTIA, Rob

Cheers,

Belated thanks Koen
Regards, Rob

Seen from the back of Worthing, 3 x Wildcats in loose trail passed along the coast around 11:20 local.
Ads-b replay shows ZZ408 AAC159 out of Yeovilton via the IoW to Lydd
Any offers on serial confirmation plus the missing 2 gratefully received.
Thanks, Rob

60-0012 has engine(s) running - maybe just a test as no box to listen in.
Anyone got comms?

The one with silver tape on is ZZ331 parked on bay 51, unflown since May 2023.

Many thanks, Rob

Anyone have the I/D of the Voyager parked out at the West end of the main apron pm. Chocked with what looked like various tapes and primed areas.
There was an A330 white bird on the Terminal too. Heat haze too bad to read either. MTIA, Rob
