Lots of activity over York way today but frustratingly, not showing up on FR24.

Not seen these about before? Propeller VTOL jobbies!

Not sure if this qualifies as ‘cool’, but looks like Lawrence Stroll is shuttling between Gaydon and Silverstone. Same helicopter was over us last week as well, and had also been to St Athan (DBX production line).

Just had a google and I think you’re right. Never seen one before and see two at once, happy days!

I was in York this afternoon, plenty of noise in the clouds, showing on FR24 as a Typhoon

Just watched this out my window! Looked like there were 3, 1 showing as an F-15, 1 with no ID and the other not showing at all.

https://www.flightradar24.com/THY6832/2c03dbf4 - the picture looks like S7 airlines livery - are Boeing flogging off aircraft that Russian airlines have bought but now can't/won't take delivery of? Wonder what the discount is for a pre-registered 737 Max 8 vs new?
