Interesting.  It was tracking on PlanePlotter for about 90 minutes, from just S of Enschede to W of Inverness, presumably on its way back west over the pond.  The only spurious plot for it on PlanePlotter was from a Scottish RB user, showing it over the Arctic north of Siberia.

See the other thread on Gulfstreams coming up with spurious positions on RB.

The RC-12Ks normally operate as packs of 3.  They are airborne relay facilities which are in the signals and electronic intelligence business.  A typical mission requires the aircraft to orbit to the rear and parallel to the forward line of own troops (FLOT). The integrated processing facility (on the ground) sends commands to and receives information from the Airborne Relay Facility (ARF) through a secure data link. The operators in the IPF process the collected information and report the intelligence to the tactical commanders and other possible joint consumers via the JTT relay on board the aircraft.   The only crew on the aircraft are the pilots.

Hi on my box now AA6922 Boeing 757 2J4ER The Yucaipa Companies. Does anyone know anything about this one is it a private aircraft?

John

Edit I found this so it may well have been a "private jet", maybe Bill was onboard!!!
The Yucaipa Companies, LLC is a Los Angeles-based holding company, focusing on private equity investments. The firm was founded in 1986 by its billionaire chairman, Ronald Burkle.

Yucaipa has a history of highly successful leveraged buyout investments in supermarket and grocery chains beginning with Jurgensen's markets in 1986. After several standalone investments in the late 1980s, Yucaipa went on to lead the consolidation of West Coast retail that occurred during the 1990s.

It recently acquired stakes in Colorado-based Wild Oats Markets, New Jersey-based Pathmark Stores, and Minnesota-based Supervalu, among others. Former US President Bill Clinton, a close friend of Burkle's, was an advisor to the company. Between 2003 and 2006, the Clintons' tax returns show total Yucaipa partnership income of $12.5 million. The 2007 summary provided by Hillary Clinton's Presidential campaign lists $2.75 million in partnership income

The database belongs to the UK Civil Aviation Authority and contains the complete aircraft details from the UK register.

Possibly a miscode?

Indeed so.  Derby-based Cessna 172 G-BJXZ, to the best of my knowledge it has never used its correct code.
