Remarks
I was on the 21:50 flight from Nice to London Stanstead and caught the meteor when it appeared as a bright moving light in the sky above the plane. I thought it was another plane but then saw the green sparkly tail develop with a bright fireball at the front which made me realise it was definitely not an airplane.
