Strange plane over Skelmersdale

[hawk88]

Just had what looked like a Cessna 208 Caravan over here with pods underneath the wings like drop tanks, there probably something completely different but only seen it through eyes as i never had my binos with me its just headed South West as im typing this quite low anyone see this or have i just completely misjudged a normal aircraft

[Airbus A346]

Just looked on FR24 it is D-FIPS a Pilatus PC-6 its flight track looks like something from a spirograph so it may be doing survey work -

it seems to be that time of year again.
