Dont go off in a huff mate

I.m not really in a huff, just annoys me how you ask an innocent question and you gets a reply from the sarky jokers on here.

Partly why i even asked is because last year when i was still training for my PPL, we were up around 5000ft practicing stall recovery when we saw a couple of Tornadoes skim the surface beneath us. My instructor said to me back then that they probably saw us long before we saw them.

I hope you were talking to Brize

No i wasnt talking to Brize, much in the same way i dont talk to Birmingham when arriving/departing Wellesbourne. We were about 10miles due north from Kemble and outside Brize Lars.

In the past though i have found Brize very helpful. Indeed we had a club visit there last November. Myself and 5 other club aircraft dropped in for a tour of the ATC and lunch in the Officers Mess. Am not usualy into all that but it was a very pleasant day out and was quite interesting to meet the ATC guys and girls.
