747’s have a hump, he probably meant at the front. It defininitly wasn’t a Sentry, as has already been established.
Already knew it was 747 by looking in the post 😎 .Oh yeah the hump at the front when he said middle made me think off a Sentry :p

What do you mean by big hump in the middle? :confused: Too me sounds like a RAF Sentry .
That 747 was at MSE last week. Will it be the same aircraft?
James
He means the first class area behind the cockpit mate heslop lives right next to NCL he knows the difference between a sentry and a 747

It was definatley a 747, It has 4 engines and big hump in the middle. Could it be an XLA ?

Just regarding Friday and the 747 at Newcastle.
I heard that this aircraft was operating for Excel and taking a lot of Elderly passengers.
Apparently ServisAir checked them all in instead of Swissport.
The easyJet A319 was Alpha Hotel. I was holding at point Foxtrot at Newcastle for 35 minutes waiting for a departure slot because of his very short final approaches. I was in G-BRJV by the way.
The LTE aircraft landed and had an all yellow tail.

By: heslop01 - 6th August 2006 at 10:25
That’s where I live. Killingworth or as you say ( killy ) it came round about 9 times in the end from what I remember.
By: LGKR - 5th August 2006 at 23:38
the EZY319 was doing touch and go’s, flew over forest hall and killy lapping!
By: heslop01 - 5th August 2006 at 14:13
yesturday would have been great if you went up, coming home from the metro centre we drove along sandy lane, and I seen about 9 aircraft landing inc the 747. And to make it better a VERY low EZY 319 circling my house 8 times. Yesturday was a very good day.

Arrived from Brize Norton.
I should have gone up on Friday, missed a 747, EZY A319 and the Air Nostrum CRJ.

Sorry, not at all. Recived another E-Mail saying watch the arrival boards but I doubt it will be on as the departure was not on.

There was a 747 used for the Lourdes flights from Doncaster DSA a few weeks back and had air mediterranee flight codes
There was indeed, it was a Corsair (TUI) 747-300. Shot of it at Doncaster in the link below.
