Saw an overall white Kingair heading overhead Peterborough in a sort of Wittering direction.
Could Duna 95 be a miss heard Duke 95 ?, think thats a regular US Kingair call sign.

i think thar I can answer this one for you but after I've been out.

Would it be twin engine, high tail, low wing sort of thing? About the size of a DH Dove? 8-10 seat?

Good morning,

The a/c that I saw had ' UNITED STATES OF AMERICA' on the forward fuselage over the portholes; an American flag on the top of the fin and underneath, '60168'. There was no ' 7- ' visible.

I hope this is helpful.

Cottesmore area currently snow flurries and low cloud.

-10C o/night minimum with -3C actual.
