2231 Noted another one tonight N752MC
752SOG at the same thing. There's been some discussion about whether or not these IDs move between aircraft.

Last post by sneaky_nikon - Aug 12, 2025, 17:42It's 352SOW playing silly beggars. The 352 from the wing number and the MJ as a contraction of MC-130J.

Last post by rookie - Aug 11, 2025, 14:43I also noticed RAF A400 ZM417 divert back to Brize Norton earlier from Hanover. They where in German airspace and probably getting ready for the descent in but turned and landed back at Brize Norton .

Military Aircraft (New & Old) / Odd C-130J Hercules
Last post by angry turnip - Aug 11, 2025, 13:57Has anyone else noticed an unusual C-130J Hercules that has been operating in England past few weeks with a civvie reg N352MJ ?
Possibly a wrongly configured transponder?
N352MJ should be a Bombardier BD-100-1A10 Challenger 350

Last post by JasonT1981 - Aug 06, 2025, 20:46Woodgate have released a statement. No one was hurt.

QuoteWoodgate Aviation can confirm that one of its Beechcraft fixed-wing aircraft was involved in an emergency landing at Birmingham Airport earlier today.
The turbo-prop aircraft was on a repositioning flight to Belfast International Airport when it developed landing gear problems. The aircraft returned to Birmingham and made an emergency landing and the main under-carriage collapsed on touch down.
Two crew members and a passenger were on board but were uninjured.
The aircraft has been removed from the runway and we will be co-operating fully with Air Accident investigators and airport services.
We would like to pay tribute to the professionalism of our colleagues and the emergency services at the airport for their prompt action.
