Allmost certainly, not the normal type of plane for Exeter, thank you darren

We are in Valencia, Spain

A couple of hours ago coming back from a monday morning shop we saw a plane at just a few thousand feet circling several times but a distance away from Valencia airport.

It was a very modern aircraft, No markings but blue and white in clour, with the wingtip sticking up (like the Ryanair 737-800), engines at the rear of the plane rather than under the wing. Largish jet, not mega huge but not an exec jet - kind of a little smaller than the 737-800 ie mid size.

Our final view was from our rear view mirror, it was doing the same circular flight pattern - could be a test flight, or showing itself off to whoever was watching - the traffic on the A7/CV35 slowed to see what it was up to as it was out of place and nowhere near where you would expect to see a plane normally.

any help would be most welcome !
