Aldergrove - anything unusual
« on: July 08, 2009, 09:18:59 AM »
Anything unusual fly in this morning around 8:05? It was a prop but because it was in the clouds I'd say that it wasn't a general aviation prop.

Possibly. Pity they weren't below the cloud base.

Piper Navajo came in approx 0810 might have been that you heard.Some of the early model Navajo`s are very throaty and sound a bit like a Tucano.

It did sound a wee bit 'Unhealthy' and that time is about right.
