Had a Spitfire over earlier heading towards Coningsby and from 18:00 we've had a Tornado orbiting Peterborough at 2000 feet. :ymapplause:

Lynx, over Bruntingthorpe, earlier today

Heres the only aircraft caught on film, the noise is from the boat throttle handle, quite pleased considering i had sun glasses on, the sun was shining on the video camera screen and I was in a boat drifting towards the ferries/boats and land.

I may be wrong but over Grimsby just flew a p-38 lightning, I don't know any was flying in the uk. I think it was because of the tail.

Red Bull P38 is in the country at the moment, it was probably that.

by **Hihonyr8811** » Tue Jun 26, 2012 10:46 pm

2 typhoons, low over Wrawby Lincs.
And then either 3 Tornados OR 1 Tornado 3 times =))

in the same place, low and fast :ymapplause:

$\:D/$ . Had the wrong lens on so no pics :((

We're sure he was showing off for the crowds :))

Oooooooooo I think I heard the P-38 talking to Humberside :-o

didn't think anything of it though :((

I'm surprised no has mentioned it especially on FC but then again they have so many sections I could easily have missed it.

So there I was in the front garden waiting to see the Red Arrows do their fly past over Yarborough school when this deafening sound came from behind me (East), I am not joking when I say Red 1 (and the other 8 of course) was directly over our house, to the inch, with Red, white and blue smoke, and very low. Lowest I've ever seen them over our house, so low they scared the cat =))

Sadly because I was not expecting them to do that, I didn't bother to bring my camera out side :((

But bloody brilliant $\:D/$ $\:D/$ :ymapplause:

Can they please do it again as I missed it the first time =))

by **Jigsaw** » Wed Jun 27, 2012 7:12 pm

WOW

You lucky bugger :))

I thought you were going to Scampton to watch the Black Eagles Helen? Or did I get the wrong day?

by **Hihonyr8811** » Wed Jun 27, 2012 7:17 pm

I was going to, but I woke up to a swollen ankle and I'm going to be on my feet all tomorrow(non air show related), probably Friday and definitely Sunday so I stayed at home. But they came to me $\:D/$ :ymapplause:

so I wasn't too upset $\:D/$ :))
