Fast Jets in transit 12 Dec 2012

Saw 5 fast jets in a 'gaggle' heading east over North Yorkshire at about 1520 this afternoon. They were 'trailing' and i guess heading into Mainland Europe. Anybody out there know anything about them-what, where from,where to etc? Just intrigued to know.

On another forum a report showed 4x Typhoons c/s Razor 11-14 had been low level in the Lake District & were RTB to Coningsby at about the time you mentioned....?

Serious question: But why should anyone with internet access (and therefore be here looking at this website) not be able to access NOTAMs?

Just login here and go for it...
