Transport Plane

Post by wdh » Wed Nov 21, 2018 9:17 am

I saw a large Turbo prop plane with its back down flying around near kings lynn....did anyone else see it?

I thought it maybe a A400....but it didnt look like one of them...

has anyone got any suggestions of what it could have been?? :S

Hi wdh,
A date, time, direction and an idea of height might be enough to help someone identify this for you.

From the "Heads-up/OTT section" :-

"Omen 1 RAF C-130 Marham gap
Unread post by slogen51 » Wed Nov 21, 2018 9:08 am

09:05 Omen 1 a single RAF C-130 on Marham zone 124.150

Giving heads up that he will be going through the Marham Gap at 250 feet

Can't see it on adsbExchange yet

That could be ZH868 43C14B showing as RRR128"
