There is a clue 🙂
P.S. Check out the shadows from the contrails above.

That is the Reebok stadium and the Middlebrook retail park so the pic actually shows Horwich, which is a suburb of Bolton.

It could be the bmi embraer which is still in exel colours?

I’d have to agree. http://www.webbaviation.co.uk/stadiums/reebok.htm
As for the planetype, second guess is an Embraer.
I’ll agree with you on the embraer too. At that low an altitude over Bolton it must be from MAN too, so a bmi Embraer? 😉

And that’s the Winter Hill TV mast on the hill at the bottom right of the picture. 😀

I think the aircraft may be a fokker?

Is that the Reebok stadium? Bolton? There’s lots of vapour trails and that NW England area generally seems to get a lot of overflying aircraft?

Newcastle?

It’s probably from a Easyjet 737 (note the orange thingies sticking from underneath the wing). Don’t know where it is, but the stadium should be a death giveaway for someone interested in football.
Nope, it’s not an EZY 737 :diablo: and there is a clue outwith the stadium.
