Passed almost directly overhead but the clouds managed to completely obscure my view.

Caught it as the clouds moved away, but it was long gone by that stage...

I saw it myself actually after hearing an aircraft flying overhead whilst in the house and checking the Plane Finder ap on my mobile. Today the clouds were very low but fast moving, inbetween them I caught the AF A380 flying overhead minus a contrail. Whilst slow moving, it did look quite graceful

Nice to see her in the flesh albeit from several miles away. Aviation never ceases to amaze me!

Unless there is a miracle it isn't heading my way looks like it will be to close to l/derry again.

Managed to get a distant shot of it. Cloud was being a nuisance.
