weather was excellent this morning and runway 04 in use, a perfect combination for this departure of N620UP. Duly passed over just south of me at 5000ft sunny side up as they say (or used to say)!....

hope it stays clear for the rest of the day and no haze like yesterday.
For the military fans amongst you, 2 Qatari C.17s departed around 8am but they turned west and went south over London - shame for me but can't win them all.

stay safe

Nicely caught, it's just a shame they don't come in a more friendly time in the day.
