Hi Tim I live in Carshalton Surrey about 5 miles from Croydon. It's the first time it's ever been this way, get Spitfires from Biggin Hill now and then.

Always a thrill to watch these guys do their thing.
All I could catch with my phone.

Not over my house, but I went to the Newark Air Museum today, and just as I got out of the car a Typhoon passed overhead on its way to Coningsby. Too fast for me to get the camera out!
Interesting museum, well worth a visit.

Saw this fly over today after returning from a trip dropping 750,000 poppies over the Battle of Britain Memorial, Capel-le-Ferne on the White Cliffs near Dover. It was accompanied by two Spitfires and a Harvard(?).

Not much in the way of air traffic so I heard a Chinook hedge hopping I had the sun on camera couldn't sea what I was taking but I got a very lucky shot.

Peter, your very lucky, we live near RAF Wittering and there is no flying at all.
The only thing we've heard was the Air Ambulance, too quick to even see it, always flies quite low and when do see it a great sight .

Wright Pat has been quiet. With little crime & auto traffic, even Life Flight has been quiet. It usually flies right over us. PaulE
My youngest daughter and I got to see the USA space station Fly over Tuesday night around 9:40 looked like a moving bright star. The moon is on the right and the space station is the little dot on the left.

Did have some F22 Raptor activity as a Florida based unit was at Wright Pat during a weather event and returned to Fla. this week. As usual, too slow w/camera & planes too fast to capture. PaulE

NASA
Type in your location on the map - then click on the nearest "blue" tag,
then on the pop up message - click view sighting opportunities.
Page re-loads with dates, times and length of time visible etc.
It's very accurate, there's also a link to an interactive map - shows you the current
location of the space station in real time.

Bit slow with finding the camera to catch the Yak 52 that just flew over ...

Saw this at local ponds.
Pete,
Does Matron know that you have been "self administering" the meds again!! :smiling: :smiling: :smiling: :smiling:

Blimey, evolution in action.....first one to the migration destination gets the prime spot.....so the jet engine adaptation gives him a head start.......
Bit late to the party but.... Couple of years ago heard a special noise, not four Merlins, but definitely big and old. Had to go and find the camera as pre mobile phone for me, and got back in time to see this. Pleased enough.
