AirfixAndy Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Two c130s doing circuits around the Ripon area......picked up on FR24 and the MkI eyeball...I'm at Lightwater Valley theme Park. One was doing around 6000ft and the other flew directly over us at about 250 feet ! It's one of the RAF green special ops Herc . Still doing the rounds at the moment .

Andy No it is not a special ops Hercules, its just one that has had the new paint finish. they normally receive this after having a Major servicing at Marshalls, Cambridge.

Graeme Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I followed a Herc this morning which was heading south from the Doncaster area, and it got as far south as Witney...then it just stopped! The details said it was at 781m, at 122kt, but it wasn't moving according to FR24 - must be one of those new VTOL Hercs we've heard nothing about, lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve4428 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Probably landed at Brize Norton. Witney is close to it. I was watching Hawks doing the very same thing on Friday on FR24, do they disappear when they go "low level", they seem to reappear sometimes, a few minutes later?????
