    Indeed. They arrived on Legacy 600 G-THFC callsign KRH92R.

    If you're a soccer man - the plane was once owned by Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, which explains the reg.

    I know the sound of a Herc anywhere .... used to live next to RAF Northolt , there were regular Hercs there

    I heard it lifting off , said to my work colleague ' Thats a Herc ' and bang it appeared over the tree line.
