cmatthewbacon Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Couple of MC-130Js over here, just south of Sedbergh, about 2325, descending from 5000 ft and heading into the Lakes at the head of Windermere. Saw them, or another pair doing the same, in the twilight a couple of days ago around 2145, but it’s dark and dreary here tonight… best, M.

Duncan B Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 A single Spitfire heading SW about 7pm last night. Not something we see in these parts very often. Earlier in the day there were several fly pasts over the site of the former RAF Montrose and some other locations up the NE coast of Scotland so possibly from those?

gazza l Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 A USMC Herc over the garden this afternoon on finals into Cambridge airport (UK), for maintenance no doubt. Just managed to get the camera out and dusted down in time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whofan Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 About 1130 - 1200 this morning 2 fast jets went over us just south of Clovelly. Plenty of noise, but didn't get out fast enough so just got a glimpse of what looked like twin tail on one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lasermonkey Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 A UAE AF C-130 just flew over. It seems to be a semi-regular thing to have A Hercules from a random country go overhead now. At 20,000ft, there wasn’t much to be seen. Theres also a Cessna 180 nearby which I hope will fly over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullbasket Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 This flies over about once year. An MH1521 Broussard. I think that there was a small airshow going on nearby yesterday. Noisy beggar! John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evalman Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 ZZ178 spent almost three hours flying circuits in the Wadebridge / Bodmin area on Thursday. Flying very slowly at 8000ft with slats / flaps and rear ramp down, I lost count of the number of times it flew over the house. Must have been around 15. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lasermonkey Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Not over my house, but I was at Fowlmere yesterday and I saw what I presume was N3200 (but definitely a Mk I) flying around. Just beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lasermonkey Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) There’s been a few Tiger Moths around today. Currently, G-AHIZ is overhead. edit: also G-BLUZ and G-AEOI. Edited July 30, 2022 by lasermonkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upnorth Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 A few days ago, a three ship of Mi-35 Hinds flew over my neighbourhood. I sadly wasn't quick enough with my camera to catch them. They were on their way to the centre of the city to overfly the graduation parade of the Czech military university. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
