        Driving up the M3 to Heathrow Marine One and their escorts flew overhead. Didn’t get a shot of Marine One though.

          Pretty sure two Apaches just flew over Bromley heading east. Maybe connected with Trump's visit? They were certainly military choppers with ordinance attached to the "wings" or whatever they're called.

            Had an Osprey and 3 helo's overhead around 21:00hrs yesterday, may well have been POTUS related.

                Not over my house, but over my head as I cycled past Biggin Hill - the two seater Spitfire that lives there.

                    The Lanc of the Memorial Flight flew over our house last Thursday to start our Battle of Britain air display which culminated with the Red Arrows. Spectacular as always.

                        No, but I did point him toward the airbase. Guess which finger I used.

                          A day or two ago, a fast twin-boom jet flew over Rugby, heading east. I know it wasn't the Sea Vixen since that's not airworthy at the moment. Possible a Vampire, or Venom? I'm not good at aircraft recognition, but wonder if anyone else saw it?

                            Just heard, due to low cloud the sound of a Eurofighter Typhoon We normally have a great display of two chasing each other. The noise on a full climb or bank is deafening. I'll takes some photos in better weather.
