Large plane over Chatsworth

Recommended Posts

Has all the hall marks of a classic ghost plane sighting. If I'm not mistaken.

Here's the link to the photo by the way,

 

Ghost Plane Peaks?

 

We took a second one seconds afterwards and strangely there was no plane in the picture. :confused:

The landing strip is on the south side of the valley.

 

The locals are familiar with these occasional flights.

 

It was not a ww2 ghost.

I live out in the peak district and occasionaly see very fast and loud low flying militry/fighter? planes zooming through.I was in Hathersage last week sometime and saw them, that will of been around 4.30. Only a guess but I think they might practice out here.

Thanks for the replies. I've just never seen planes flying so low in this area and it just seemed a bit strange. Also, we're 99% sure it was a really old-style plane.

Was it the press plane?

 

There was something on the local news about Chatsworth opening something or other earlier & it showed aerial photographs.

Are you sure it wasn't a glider - you get quite a few in the peak and they are soundless and can appear to be going quite slowly on air currents. nice photo by the way.

Hard to see from such a small image but it looks like a single engine high wing monoplane something like a cessna 152.

 

Common with aero clubs so no too much chance of it being a ghost.
