Heading east up the airway over Plymoiuth and Exeter, FL120. I assume it's going somewhere local - Northolt perhaps.

Rather a rare visitor these days Graham.
They us to frequently visit Culdrose, but haven't for some time now. So to have 2 in, in one day is good going. ;)
Also the Falcon 10 is the smaller but older brother to the Falcon 20 that Cobham use Graham ;)

Sorry to be pedantic, buzzer. :whistle:

Despite the numbering system, the Falcon 10 was developed from the Falcon 20. It was re-designed to have a non-circular fuselage and first flew in 1971 - whereas the Falcon (Mystere) 20 first flew in 1963.

Nice catch bob. Did think about rushing up to the field to catch it, but played it safe and spotted it from the back garden
