Usually only get Chinooks over these parts, but he was going some, and was heading towards an airliner of some sort before peeling away and heading east. Beautiful noise. 8)
one over hertford yesterday. Amazing bit of kit
That'll be the third time they've scrambled the Typhoons then (olympics style)
Apparently they're itching to launch them 😀
That'll be what I heard from my garden in Raynes Park then! Very unusual to hear a fast jet round here! Wish I had seen it.
Damned quiet around these parts now Lyneham's closed. 🙁
Aircraft of all types stooging around day and night has been a part of my life since I was born. Really miss it a lot.
I live near Northolt airport and those damn things make flipping noise. Walls and windows shake, waking up my little son. Basterds.
Northolt is a military airfield - are you surprised that they fly military planes in and out of it?
I saw that jet over Surbiton!
Almost as noisey as Wiggo going past in the TT.
one (prob the same) came over my house in kings langley not too far from northwood about 2000 ft 5ish yesterday - wonderfull sight and noise - think i even punched the air when it came over (allways wanted to be a fighter pilot as a kid)
was it pacing wiggins?
Damned quiet around these parts now Lyneham's closed.

might have been my mate - lucky man has such a cool job 🙂
