Postby fulanito_uk » Mon Jun 07, 2010 6:27 am

Hi all,

Was out in my garden and saw a strange 747 landing at heathrow.. thought it was air force one... but had diffrent colours... was white with the US flag on the tail but an other hump (i guess radar?) over the normal 747 hump any ideas?
landed at heathrow about 12:15...???

Sounds like the one I saw at Brussels airport on the 10th. I also noticed some other military planes there, including a Polish an-26. Probably a summit for ministers at Brussels...
