    For the past hour or so I’ve been able to hear a prop driven aircraft doing what appears to be circuits. I Can’t see it, can just hear it! We are only 5 miles or so from Leeds Bradford Airport.

    It can’t me taking images now when it’s dark ?

    Neither does it sound like it’s doing landing & take offs

    Just a constant bloody drone !

    Its harvest time, sure its not a combine harvester doing circuits of a field?

    Got a similar noise at ours this evening and I know they are harvesting, and they’ll work all night if they think the sunny spell is coming to an end…

    Have a look on flight radar to see what it is (if it’s commercial)?

    There’s a flying school on the south side of LBA. Chances are you’ve just experienced a “learner driver “

    NB remember when buying a house near an airport , there may be the noise of aeroplanes

    Be grateful you don’t live in Thornbury, where Police helicopter is a nightly occurrence
