This may not be of interest but I was surprised that all five of these aircraft were heading from the USA to Germany at 5.30am this morning over West Berkshire. There were two more just behind me to the South. Three to Frankfurt, three to Munich and one to Stuttgart. Usually there is a mix of destinations (countries) in these overhead passing aircraft.

Indeed it makes perfect sense why these aircraft are flying over the UK at this time, as its approx another 90-mins onwards to Germany, which will make the time 07:00am. Not forgetting that Germany is +1hr ahead of the UK, so in effect this makes it 08:00am when people arrive, and they will more than likely be heading straight into the city for a days business.
Also, having just had a very quick glance at the stats on some of the major airports in the USA, London consistently ranks as the #1 Busiest International Route, and destinations within Germany (i.e Frankfurt, Munich, etc.) are all featured at least somewhere within the top 10, apart from LAX…where not a single German destination features even though Lufthansa flys to both FRA and MUC, but I’m not sure as to why this is?

Nice one 🙂
Flights from the USA to Germany start crossing the UK from about 3:30am or so. Lots of traffic evidently!

It’s like 5 comets in the sky. It’s different and definitely of interest. Excellent shot.
