Aircraft draws big hearts in the air

A Virgin Atlantic plane made a 'love flight' on Valentine's Day.

The path of the Airbus A330 was shown on the flight tracking site FlightRadar24. The aircraft rose from London Gatwick airport for a test flight to Cornwall, in the southwest of England.

'This training happened by chance on Valentine's Day, so we have slightly modified the route to make a heart', Virgin Atlantic reacts to Twitter. The heart was drawn above the sea, which was soon noticed by several twitterers.

There were no passengers in the aircraft, only crew.
