C160 inbound at around 14.30pm today

Location : Abingdon

As it says on the tin, seen inbound today, presumably the Red Arrows support aircraft as they have been using German C160's for support this year due to the RAF having no spare transport aircraft available. The big Q is what was it's ID?

Having a quick look through the SBS logs I can't see a C160 tracked around that time, however there is a French AF CN235M-200 '156' on the logs.

Confirmed: French AF CN235M-200 '156', saw it with my own eyes. Took off as the Vulcan arrived back from Kemble.

That must have been it, only got a fairly brief look at it from the garden of the 8 Bells in Eton and didn't have my bino's handy. thanks for that guys.
