Unknown Aircraft - West Midlands

Post by Blues97 » Tue May 26, 2020 10:44 am

Hi all,

I hope this is the right section for this but feel free to move if not.

Is anyone able to identify what was flying North at around 11:30/35am today (Tuesday 26th May) just to the west of Birmingham (possibly OTT of Wolverhampton). The noise was there for a few minutes and I managed to get a glimpse of a vapour trail so it was obviously at/around 36,000 ft.

I had a look on ADSB radar but nothing that would link to it was visible.

Please let me know if you need anymore information.

Thank you in advance.

Regards.
