Call me a buff old traditionalist (or short sighted), but I see no Tornado.

Luckily all these aircraft were flying at low-level to avoid detection!

Lafyar Cokov,

Looks like not everybody's tuned in to the massive/whaa game. How about a double whaa?

It's not actually a Buccaneer you fool, it's actually an old Boscome Hunter.

Game...

Tops and massive and misidentification seem to ring a bell from other places on the interweb!, would 'top bombing!' be another one?
Any way heres a picture of a jet provist, my nan used to fly them in the Army during the war...

Nice pics mate!

Daily occurence here I'm afraid! Such is life..........

It when you guys go over at 250' right over my roof at night that I smile. Not unknown for large helos to land at night in a field not 100yds from here. It's only then that I really wonder whats going on????

There's probably a field that the farmer has allowed them to use for training. There are several around the UK; it's nice that there are still some folks living out in the countryside that appreciate us.
Who said that Low-flying was concentrated in small areas!!?

Jumpseater,

Tried to reply to your PM, but it says you need a clear out!

PM me again when you've done it and I'll repeat what was just lost.

Might be a few days on my way to Blighty for next week.
