Did anyone go?

I got it on Scottish control on route, or at least I'm 90% sure it was that, definitely said it was on a training flight.

[Lucas1860]

I went, I had to leave at 16.00, I know it was schedule to visit, the queen flew from Doncaster, the Dreamliner was supposed to arrive for 15.25, with the queen having a look around it before she flew out. There was an AWACs doing practise approaches most of the afternoon.

so does that mean it did or did not put in an appearance?

I'm convinced I had the Dreamliner on the scanner then, as the timings all match


And on a compleatly different note The AWACS was NATO30 saw it take off from waddo was doing a schedualed PD at doncaster (what ever one of those is )
And the Royal flight interupted the Tornado from Coningsby because the tornado wanted to use the range, but Queenie had booked it for an hour Not sure what she was going to do with it, but we had a fun conversation about it Maybe you had to have been there

The weather was very poor, I wonder if the Dreamliner decided to give it a miss with this in mind.

These shots show how bad the light was.
