Morning all,
Whilst sitting at home yesterday I noticed a weird looking trail coming towards me so I shot outside with my camera and found this KLM B747 dumping fuel. It had just left Amsterdam and had an engine issue so dumped over Norfolk and returned to Amsterdam..

Not great quality but thought it was worthy of sharing.
Cheers
