A pilot flies a plane over Clacton and draws a bin-like shape in the sky, a move reported to have happened days before the Farage v Count Binface by-election. The flight path is visible from the ground and lasts for a short period, with reports saying the plane remains in the area long enough to complete the outline.

Neither outlet identifies the person piloting the aircraft. The Independent and Yahoo! UK News both note that it is unclear who is responsible for the stunt and focus on the duration and timing of the flight. The Independent describes the flight as lasting around half an hour on Saturday. Yahoo! UK News similarly highlights the connection to the upcoming by-election, framing the sky drawing as part of the lead-up to the contest between the two public figures, though it does not provide additional verified information about the intent or organizer behind the flight.
