Someone is flying an SR22 from Narsarsuaq (Greenland) towards Iceland.
He started in Knoxville Tennessee, then went to Bangor, Maine; then Newfoundland; then Greenland. Looks like a cool trip.

Braver person than me. Someone is getting their new plane delivered.

A lot of water and worry on those trips.

B52 Bomber heading south towards Trondheim, Norway

Same aircraft. Probably taking advantage of the lack of A50 Mainstay in Belarus to test rus response.

I've just had a US Black Hawk helicopter go over in Mid-Suffolk, that's quite a rare sight - seems it's come from Belgium

[Snoggledog]

4 Belgian registered F16's pootling around Lincoln and the North Sea at the moment.

Not something we see everyday: Agusta Westland Tiltrotor AW-609

I didn't even know AW made one of those, good spot.

Looks to be 7 big birds all on an exercise in north sea from nato02 in perth to stratotanker over hull.
Just had 2 chinooks heading north up the a1 from Newcastle and a globemaster doing touch and goes at Newcastle airport.
Plenty of refuelling in the southern north sea too.

[Chimune]

B52 heading out over Hull and 3 x c30s nr Norwich. All very busy !

Quick google suggested its exercise Joint Warrior - 2 nato marine groups.

3 of them routed up Ostende - Mildenhall for an over night (14th) then have gone off up North to play with the others for Exercise Cobra Warrior 23-1.

We had two Merlins full of Commandos (Jungly C/S) head up that way on 14th

Duke 61 is heading south now from Inverness, there are various Apaches, Wildcats in the Newcastle / Leeds area too

USAF B52 Bomber had landed at Bardufoss Airport Northern Norway. On their way south to their base in southern Spain.
