Hello,
yesterday I saw WOA8005 routing KBWI-ETAR and saw it on the UM140 Airway at 13:00bst. I tracked the flight using this link:

Ive been using this website a lot recently, when you know which airways/VORs you live under you can find out when particular flights are due to pass over your head
heres a pic i took through my telescope:
@MikeLima: yes I think you are right about the JAL 777, my mistake
