Hi all I was wondering if anyone could identify this odd aircraft I spotted a few minutes ago;
When I spotted it the first thing that I thought was that it looked exactly like a VC10 but it does not appear that any of them are currently airworthy. It had a high tail wing and did not have engines mounted below the wings. When I looked on flight radar it did not give an aircraft type, but instead simply listed it as VPBLU, after a quick online search the only VPBLU I could find was a twin prop, and looked nothing like this.
It appears that the aircraft recently came from Farnborough and before that Montreal.
I have attached the flightradar screenshots and some admittedly poor photos, that I snapped with my phone.
I’d be interested to see what people come up with...
Many thanks, Grej
