Big jet over Yeovil

Post by FoxD » Tue Feb 24, 2015 1:26 pm

Approx 1250 heading west to east, went OTT Houndstone retail park, going by the tail shape I'd say a C17? Anyone got any ideas, quite low say 6000ft.

Thanks

ZM400 A400M

And there are 3 KC-135's headed this way too, should be here in 20 mins or so headed up to Mildenhall

Yep flew overhead Chippenham

Sorry to be picky but correct registration is ZM400.

Been a busy day down south today!
