I'm in my forties, and I would stop what I was doing if a pair of any fast jet appeared in the sky
In my school days I would see transports every single day, helicopters weekly and trainers at least three times a week.
While I still see Chinooks and Lynx, I only saw one pair of Tonkas fly last year in total.
I'm glad you enjoyed what you saw. It's just a shame that some people don't seem to share your happiness..............who would ever think that would be the case on an aviation forum?
