discussion What flew over your house (yesterday)

[Alan 45]

Wonder it it's the same one that flew over Hull City Centre around 1-30, for the start of the Power Boat Racing on the Humber!Gregg

It could be gregg it is doing the rounds at the moment it just hasn't few over my house yet but it will I see one about four times a year in the summer

In the time it takes a PBY to fly over you can have a picnic and a shave.

Certainly time to make a cup of tea old chap..............................

They should fly straight over my house then

A C47 nearly knocked my sky dish off the roof a moment ago it was flying that low

We had a aerobatic display from an F18 super Hornet (Yes really) yesterday, It was from the airport (sort of) just ten minuets up the road.

Boeing was showing it off as a part of their cunning plan to get the DRAF to buy them as replacements for their F16s

Personally I rather hope they go for the Eurofighter.

Nice, I didn't think there were any Wessex still flying.

Yeah Colin I've seen a couple of the last few years obviously not in an operational sense but air shows and stuff like that , when I was in Portsmouth in May I saw a gazel in camo fly over the holiday park we were staying at , where I live in Devon I've seen loads of stuff flying over

 

[rickoshea52]

According to my wife, the last few days have seen a Canberra, F18, A400M Atlas, A350, A380, Vampire and Meteor all do their stuff on validation flights in preparation for the Farnborough airshow which starts next week. Meanwhile I am still in Riga fixing knackered Q400's.

So that must have been where the hunter I saw earlier going

Think that Vixen is back in RN paint again. last I was it it had a broken leg....Ouch.

Just been buzzed by a Merlin. Nothing new in that living between airfield and beach... Rather funny it flew over and could hardly have reached the coast when it turned and flew hoe again. I could imagine the radio:

"Ops sorry our bad, found him in the dunes."

One very disappointed crew turning around and leaving the beach with the observer protesting! (Lots of young danish women sunbath topless on the beach. bottomless to come to think of it !!!)
