I flew from ZRH to LCY last night, via Southend thanks to a fire alarm at City causing it to be evacuated. When the airport re-opened I then took what must be the shortest flight in history, taking 8 minutes, to the intended destination and I'm intrigued to see the route, altitude, speed etc but don't know where to find it.

Thanks!

Have a look on Flightradar24. You can view historic flights now, top left corner IIRC.

I'd do it for you but I'm at lunch and frankly can't be arsed. wink

I did try but it didn't seem to be there yet, only up to the day before.

Actually, it is there but only shows a couple of mins circling over Kent.

It should appear over France at that time.

It disappears half way over the channel for me!

What actually happened is we spent about 40 minutes circling over Folkestone, before indulging in some mild aerobatics on the way into Southend, then sat on the Tarmac for over an hour waiting for fuel, before buzzing Essex and East London at low altitude and landing at City, very late indeed.
