Singapore Airlines Cargo 747 outbound from LHR to Amsterdam!

I guess nobody knows (without looking it up) where Nur-Sultan is?

The only interesting flight that I've noticed recently was a Canadian Air Force C-130 heading from Belfast to Canada. Only reason I spotted it was because of the noise as it was still climbing (about 50 mile from the airport).

Had to cheat on Nur-Sultan!
