Mystery jets in LHR FIR
 
Can anyone tell me what is whizzing past my house a couple of times a week? Sounds very low, very fast and probably military. I live about 8 miles South of LHR.

Suspect it may be linked to anti-terror precautions for the Olympics??

Now they've found where you live and confirmed you're at home, the drones will be along soon to finish the job. :E
