Early visitor to Brize 0150 Thursday morning

Post by zero_gravity » Thu Sep 21, 2023 8:17 pm

Anyone know what dropped into Brize this morning between 0050 and 0150 GMT for gas and go ?
Appears to have been Ex Mildenhall and eventually returned to the hall around 0500 GMT.

Many thanks.

Only move at that time was a calibrator King Air that landed at 0050Z, departed at 0150Z and landed back at Teesside. Callsign Calibrator 125

Eccie I think you may have solved the mystery.

I tracked a flight for five hours Mode A only on a sqwk5006 . He departed Mildenhall area before midnight and tracked into Brize after which seemed to do a grand tour of the east.
Lost him around Peterborough area but could well have headed back up to Teesside.

See search.php?keywords=mystery

Thanks again for getting back to me on this.

Hi Eccie

Further checks show that as I get the last hit on the unknown , CLB127 appears and heads north on sqwk 1177
400978 G-FPLD CLB127 .

Well done.
