Photos: FAA Plane Checking NavAid Equipment
Residents and commuters in the east end this morning [Sept 26] may have witnessed a private plane flying different patterns in the area, sometimes at lower altitudes than usual.

thank you Bernews for explaining it for us. would’ve been nice of airport gm to have given residents in the east a warning or notice about it.
The minister of transport and tourism didn’t know this was going on , he had much more important things to think about , like changing the license plates on the standard blue GP car that’s overused , doing his personal business .
we will be sure to personally inform you next time……NOT!
Unfortunate but true …. It seems as if the minister has abdicated all responsibility for transport .
What do you need a warning or notice for? This has been occurring ever since we’ve had an airport!
Nice shots. The aircraft comes through Bermuda regularly, but was its operation really disturbing you JR?? I’m sure it didn’t do anything excessively out of the norm that other aircraft transiting BDA do!?
Truly amazing sight…
Yes…their called windows…brilliant aren’t they? They actually “enable” pilots to see where they are going!…Our weather girls utilise them daily…they just look so much better doing it!
