@Syndicate Apparently, B&Q are sending in reinforced army-grade orange buckets, so probably just for testing purposes, nothing to worry about.

@Syndicate QRA (Quick Reaction Alert team) on an inbound plane to Manchester.

@Syndicate It’s been going round Manchester airport, looks to be an RAF QRA (Quick Reaction Alert) and is currently the most tracked aircraft in the world

@Syndicate A plane has been intercepted and escorted by 2 typhoons into Manchester and now met by emergency services on the ground. Unsure of the reason why!

@Syndicate Looks like u just had a QRA Quick reaction response! Normally to a plan not communicating with air traffic and they get released to investigate looks like was inverted to Manchester airport.

@Syndicate An SAS flight from Oslo to Manchester lost coms and was escorted by RAF. metro.co.uk/2024/02/05/raf…

@Syndicate Just had this pop up, so seems likely it’s that!

@Syndicate RAF probs routine

@Syndicate Scandinavian Airlines A320 flying into Manchester being escorted by Quick Reaction Alert, loss of communications over the North Sea

@Syndicate Intercepted a Scandinavian Airlines plane from Oslo which had lost comms. Standard QRA procedure with unresponsive aircraft.

@Syndicate This one ig, Nothing to worry abt if it's on Radar

@Syndicate Call of duty’s newest kill streak update

@Syndicate Looks like there was actually two! 🤣😂

@Syndicate i’ve got a live on of some plane spotters at the airport on youtube and it seems it was a scandinavian airlines being escorted, but for what reason i have no idea!

@Syndicate Delivering more buckets? 😂

@Syndicate Just come to Manchester airport, I’ve just seen it over my work, there was 2 guiding plane back it was awesome 😎

@Syndicate It's usually the Germans

@Syndicate There was two tom. They were intercepting a plane from Norway but don't know why

@Syndicate Just going off its flight path I believe i would be training flights

@Syndicate Orange bucket shortage reported in Russia😄

@Syndicate Wouldn’t be the strangest thing you’ve bought.

@Syndicate Literally just flew over my office. Fucking shit myself 😂

@Syndicate Do you not usually get jets over your house? I live in the middle of butt fuck no where and it's like an airshow once a day

@Syndicate well the king has cancer could that have anything to do with it?

@Syndicate Training exercise

@Syndicate They're there for your buckets 🪣 but in all reality, probably just a training exercise

@Syndicate download flight radar24 tom, you can see all the planes in the air including RAF

@Syndicate Probably because we are at war and you live close to an airport.

@Syndicate There was a SAS flight that lost communication so the raf scrambled to see if they where ok and escorted them down to Manchester airport
