Air activity over London today?

Is there any flying activity over london today? Couldn't see anything in the NOTAMS, but maybe I wasn't using them properly. Also, the BBMF website hasn't got any 2005 dates on it!

I am at work but would like to be outside at the appropriate times.

Thanks,

N

Just the DC3 in and out of Luton, which flew clockwise around the M25 and held over Crystal Palace, before flying over the City at 2000L south to north at 1000 feet.

Ah so that's what the radials I could hear yesterday evening were - very frustrating to hear a lovely rumbling but not be able to see it - small matter of a hill or two in the way!

Private MOD shin-dig. 40 Years since their first display there. Mind you, with a 6nm TRA it's hardly a 'private' event. . .
