If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Not of the quality of the last two and I'm afraid you will have to take my word for it but this is the new French AF A330 FUJCT/1657 flying overhead Sussex a couple of weeks back en-route to CDG. It's currently employed on the route from Paris to Tahiti.

and here's a couple more from recently.

Last Week , on 5th March,C17 ZZ176 did some circuits at Gatwick in the late afternoon, call sign RRR803. Unfortunately for me he decided to make a VERY early right turn on climbout (he was turning within the airfield boundary) which meant - being 5 miles east of the airport, all I got were some distant views with the beast highlighted against the sun.

12/03/2021 RAF Airbus A400-M Atlas ZM413, Callsign Ascot484, ICAO 43C5E7, seen flying through thin cloud at about 3,500ft over North Norfolk. Taken from a bedroom window with limited room to pan so apologies for the shutter speed being too fast for prop blur.

RC-135W 62-4134 as OLIVE21 downwind to Mildenhall over my flat in Bury St E on Tuesday this week. Shooting against the sun and in and out of cloud gave some interesting shadow effects... ImageIMG_4380 by Andrew St Edmunds, on Flickr

Finnish PC12 PI-04 at 18K over the Borders on Thursday. Covid meant no trip up to Edinburgh to get this leaving, so it was a real surprise to see this over the house.
