Just saw what I think was this Dakota flying north bound about 5 miles west of Morpeth, Northumberland. Any ideas where it’s off to?
OTNE has it listed:

Celebrating 65 years of KLM flying to Scotland!
Due to the ash cloud over Scotland in May, the DC-3 experience had to be postponed.
Now the sun is shining again and we are delighted to confirm the new dates with you!
The DC3 will take off from Glasgow on Wednesday 17th August and arrive the same day at Edinburgh. Then it will take off again from Edinburgh on Thursday 18th August and arrive the same day in Aberdeen.
This is the new flight schedule:
17 August – Glasgow departure 15:00 – Edinburgh arrival 16:00
18 August – Edinburgh departure 09:00 – Aberdeen arrival 10:00

Thanks gents – I did wonder what it was when I heard it rumbling past, and only caught a quick glimpse!
Cheers
