Twin prop commuter low flying Guildford
Hi All,
Did anyone else see the twin prop commuter plane over Guildford today?
At about 11:00 hours today, a twin prop (don't ask me what I only really know rotary types) flew over Guildford between 400 and 200 feet, repeatedly banking steeply and at one point dived toward Compton/A3.
Landing gear was down. The aircraft made several circuits around Guildford and at one point I wondered if they were in trouble because of the erratic flying.
Did anyone witness this?

"Twin prop" covers such a wide range of types that, without any further information, identifying what you saw will be almost impossible.
"Commuter", on the other hand, is a much more specific term and combined with the twin prop attribute the range of possibilities is small enough to provide a reasonable chance of an ID. Did you have a specific reason for describing it as such ?
