AN-12

[hammo19]

Not a Cavok one tonight but a Aerovis Airlines one .headed North towards East Mids

[RobbyJ]

I didn't catch this one and I've missed the noise in the air over the last few weeks. I've now taken the particularly nerdy move of fitting an ADS-B receiver at home and I'm toying with hosting a Mode-S box now too as my house is in an excellent elevated spot.

UR-CCP just flown over on its way from Morocco to East Mids again

[Mr_C]

Flight ADB1002 just flew over here low and loud. How do I find out what type of Antonov it was?

[LHRFlightman]

Antonov AN-124.

Check out FR24 and pop ADB1002 into the search bar. It's currently heading west over the Irish Sea.

[Mr_C]

Cool. Thanks.

My wife is upstairs and just called me to say an aeroplane is vibrating the windows. Sure enough there was a pronounced low frequency prop noise.

Having read this thread earlier I said casually 'oh, that must be an Antonov AN12, they make a lot of noise'.

Then I popped down to my study and looked on FlightRadar24 and sure enough it was that one, just going past Southampton and over our house. Slowly and noisily.

You were with Karma's wife too?

[Steve vRS]

I wonder how effective the tail guns would have been in real life in the military version of this?

Funnily enough, this flew over my house at FL240 an hour or so ago. Noisy buggers ain't they.

[hammo19]

Yep same one tonight.....flys a couple of miles away from our house near Bletchley. Can't wait for light evenings so I can actually see it.

[RobbyJ]

UR-CKL heading over the IOW now heading to East Mids.............

25 hours and 15 mins later it's just gone over Chichester, 'tis indeed quite noisy!

[hammo19]

Was very late over us last night

[smack]

Another was flying north early Sunday evening.

[RobbyJ]

It flew right over but I didn't hear it somehow? Bring on summer evenings when I can actually see one.

[mrloudly]

Just flown over us at Naseby, guess into E.Mids. Lovely to see and hear!

[perdu]

Is this the same one? Flew over me yesterday on finals to BHX

Might have been two of them

Second flyover about 3/4 hr later
