OTT Bicester 18/3/12

Post by knutt » Mon Mar 19, 2012 7:09 pm

Between 0920 & 0935 on 18/3/12 a large twin engined airliner,possibly a Boeing 767 or 777 overflew Bicester (Oxfordshire). It appeared to have a black or dark coloured forward fuselage & a white rear fuselage & tail. Does anyone know the reg?

thanks Kevin

Sounds like Titan's G-POWD which has been operating out of Brize

Martin,
It appeared to have a black or dark coloured forward fuselage & a white rear fuselage & tail.
I don't think it was G-POWD as my description does not match the colours. G-POWD has a white forward fuselage with the remainder of the fuelage & tail is black.

Appologies Kevin, I didn't read it correctly. B777 ZK-OKQ was inbound to LHR around then as ANZ2 which is the one in the All Blacks colour scheme which is presumably what you saw
