Just my luck a lufthansa A380 flew right over my head this morning but the bloody clouds covered but it made a great noise as it flew by.

And yet again bad luck this time an Air france A380 flew over but it was raining so no sighting but nice sound from the engines again.

hi Angry Turnip .. bit of a swerve from this thread but just seen your pic of the Piper PA-31-350 Navajo OY-NJV ... it circled Newcastle 4 or 5 times on Wednesday morning.We get quite a lot of "sightsee'rs" above here but it stuck out 'cos of its "heavy" engine noise and the purple tail fin.

Just to make you feel worse String, here's one I photographed last week while back home in West London  ;D

PS I have the Planefinder app on iPhone and the recent update alows you to set alerts when a certain aircraft type flies over a designated area so I get advanced warning when a 380 is about to fly over Craigavon.

Nice one Paul. I didn't know about the alert on the app, but I do now :)

There's a few people talking about a trip to Heathrow in another topic. That photo was actually taken 10 miles away from Heathrow. I usually take a wee trip to Myrtle Avenue across the road from runway 27L but I decided to take all my shots from my local park in Fulham.
