.. a complete U-turn over our clear skies. Was heading due SSE and in a short space did a total u turn and headed back NNW. It was at max altitude (as they are up here). Why would it do that?

Claymores · 03-03-2010, 08:32 AM

wouldn't a jumbo take about 50-70 miles to U-turn? (almost out of horizon) or did he handbrake it? was he chasing the Eurofighter you saw or going after the UFO?

PS - what is Ceiling height for a jumbo? report him for bad driving if you noted his number

It probably was a 50 mile u-turn. Its a big sky up here. He was heading for Edinburgh and now he is heading straight back towards Iceland?

We only get a few planes per day here.

Sure - many Jumbos land at EDI just behind the UFOs - EDI has such a long runway for the aliens and huge planes

Are you sure it was a jumbo doing the handbrake turn or Nelly the Elephant?

Was it bright pink?

A billy connelly used to say about tcheuchters from the Highlands - a double decker bus? is that a hoose wi wheels?

Crimson Dynamo · 03-03-2010, 08:46 AM

In this current climate it is slightly worrying. I would hope that it was a military plane.

Claymores · 03-03-2010, 09:04 AM

So now the military are flying whute Jumbo's and handbraking them - that sure is spooky - sure it wasn't a seagull? was it a flying hoose wi wheels?

It must be "25% off frozen pizza" day at the shop in Inverness cos Rekyavick runway is even shorter than EDI. Tell Kerry

Claymores · 03-03-2010, 09:25 AM

"The Voice of Reason" strikes again - the military in white jumbos are heading to Iceland as all mums do - 25% off frozen pizzas..........I don't need to jump in my jumbo as pal's wife works in Iceland and gets staff discounr........you know it makes sense

Terrorists are gonna crash a Jumbo into Inverness Town Hall - keep it on CNN and see Leather IS Voice of Reason.

What next? Will Elgin get hit?

Frozen pizza? Before the world changes when Al Quieda fly a jumbo staight into the heart of western democracy? (AKA Inverness town hall)

We got the head's up first here - no way I'm gonna step on a white military jumbo today to go to Iceland....boot of my car will do the groceries......or Syl will get me more with staff discount

Claymores · 03-03-2010, 10:31 AM

Also another slight problem with your UFO white military sighting is that a jumbo would have to be dropping from ceiling height over Highlands to even attempt emergency landing @ EDI's short runway, and it certainly wouldn't handbrake the motor north towards a shorter runway in Iceland.

Think you saw a seagull, I know they look big to tcheuchters - 'a hoose wi wings'

Oh god - Elgin Centre is gonna get terrorised

Are you really President/Gavin?

Claymores · 03-03-2010, 10:49 AM

I'm gonna hop the next commuter Jumbo Jet EDI-RYK on that busy route and just hope it doesn't do aerotatics over Leather's house - getting to 37000 feet over highlands will be an achievement in itself

Whooooaaa there; you live in the Highlands? Goddamn it; I'm no longer the furthest north!

Back on topic: that's weird, why on earth would it do that?
