It's the long-range version of the Il-76 freighter, probably on a Haiti mission.

We've got a lovely Meridian An12 UR-CAH (50815B) bobbing along somewhere in the Manchester area at FL250

Unfortunately no ADS-B, but still nice to see on the log

Yep I logged UR-CAH too last night.

However just logged An26 UR-CHT (5081EA) near to Rugby at 2053 tonight too!

Must have been close as I have taken my indoor aerial inside due to gusty winds.

Hi Chris

The "26" was over around Manchester this evening also - let's hope they re-appear during the lighter evenings?
