Heard here south of St.Austell at 2220 tonight prop type heading in to Newquay, nothing showing on flightradar, heard call saying in for a full stop. Any ideas ? If a civvie, my apologies but why nothing on flightradar ?
Re: 2220 Newquay
It was a USN C-130T, 164996, hence nothing on Flightradar. 

Re: 2220 Newquay
Rare visitor these days. Wonder if it's night stopping?
Re: 2220 Newquay
Thanks Kyle and Nick, as you say, a rare visitor. I am off to take a look at Classic Air Force later, open again today after the winter shutdown and will take a look to see if it is still here
Re: 2220 Newquay
Still here at 0945, parked on the military side down at the HAS site.
Re: 2220 Newquay
There's nobody around it at present Pete so it's here a while longer at least.
It's in the all over grey scheme.

Re: 2220 Newquay
I think another (USN C130) stopped at Newquay this afternoon. Can anyone confirm, please?
Re: 2220 Newquay
Someone on FB reported seeing a USMC KC-130 climbing over Berry Head less that an hour ago, maybe this was at Newquay ?Malfatron Malkovic wrote:I think another (USN C130) stopped at Newquay this afternoon. Can anyone confirm, please?
