The roar of 2 Tornados!

[Buntybunny]

The roar of planes startled many people in our village at lunchtime today. Two Tornados flew overhead and were captured on video and photographed by several quick-thinking people. The last operational Tornado F3s in RAF service were retired in March 2011 Anyone know where these could have come from? Location, West Suffolk, UK.

Regards Bunty.

There's a deployment of Italian Tornados at Volkel in the Netherlands at the moment. Not that far, as the Tornado flies, from Suffolk.

RAF GR4''s soldiered on until April 2019, of course

Hi…. More than likely German a/f Tornados taking part in exercise “Steadfast Noon”. They operated into the UK at low level on several days last week!

I prefer the roar of 4 Conways but suit yourselves.
