Only caught th back of it but think it was an A400M low over Merthyr Tydfil heading towards the Beacons around 1700 tonight.

They're pretty common over Wiltshire now so quite likely. Quite a bit quieter than the C17s we get here a lot.

One started doing low level trials on Friday which will be the one you saw. Was doing circuits around the Usk valley at 600ft.

Must have been lost over Merthyr then unless they were transiting!
