    So its all over twitter that an Italian C27 lost comms and was escorted by typhoons to Prestwick. Major police operation now on the ground. Flightrader showing departures have started again. Wonder what's going on?

    'Flights are departing Prestwick again'

    Aye, that one Ryanair flight to Malta that was waiting!

    Next departure: 06:50 on Friday. Makes Belfast International look busy.

    A major emergency had been declared at the airport after the Italian C-27J aircraft lost communication

    A spokesman for the Ministry of Defence said: "Typhoon aircraft were launched this evening from RAF Lossiemouth to intercept a civilian aircraft which was causing concern to air traffic control authorities.

    No civilian operators of this type as far I am aware. ALL military.

    And indeed it was Italian Air Force so I guess that's why there was such drama.
