bobbydazzla Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 It’s getting squeaky bum time for GLF5 now. It’s course is probably a bit far north for Geneva, might be Zurich Still at 40,000 feet, would be a rapid descent to get into Zurich Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED209 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Fill me in, what's GLF5? Or whose? It’s a private gulfstream 5 jet which left Riyadh this morning which is currently plotting a course roughly in the direction of Newcastle. I don’t think we have any idea who owns it.

James Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Fill me in, what's GLF5? Or whose? Private Saudi aircraft Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Fill me in, what's GLF5? Or whose? A Gulfstream private jet. It's flying from Riyadh and is currently over the Alps, pointing straight towards Newcastle. The same type of jet flew Riyadh, London, Newcastle, Riyadh in 24 hours last week, only stayed in Newcastle for an hour. We don't know whose it is or what it's doing. But we like to watch them and get ourselves in a lather that it's Saudi's coming to close the deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Turned slightly just now, bearings closer to Newcastle, but also Luxembourg, Belgium and the possibility of veering a bit more towards London Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
