Anyone from the South of England?
Well I keep hearing this noise outside my house, it sounds like thunder with plane engine noise.
Sometimes we get planes flying over for Gatwick/heathrow but this was different as it was louder and I guess it was far up.
I heard it 3 times, now but im not sure.
Can anyone confirm?
4th time now but more distant.

I guess it depends on where in the South of England. I live 250 yards from Heathrow and its a little difficult noticing one jet sound.

Apart from the airshow over the weekend, and a friend of mine who lives on the south coast told me that he saw a civvie JP5 going hell for leather along the coast late last week.

Somebody having a "blast" on Leigh Park again?

Haven't seen anything on the Fighter Control forums for that area......
