Yes
Some serious action going on over Penrith and then later in the day over Orton Scar, not big on names really as at first I thought they were Torndaos over Penrith but later in the day they looked like maybe F-16's x 2 chasing a smaller more nimble plane, full on Top Gun stuff.
I guess they will have flown up 'The Alley' at some point if so we all missed a treat - I was texting G&A with a running commentry, lol !

Also saw a couple of Hawks and Tocano, dammit, dammit, dammit !
 
Sounds good but the way the weather has been I don't think many people have been out much this last week certainly good to know stuff is around though.....when oh when is the weather going to give us a break...

I stopped in the layby for about 30 mins on the phone, nothing came through though, they were already in the playground and playing fast and low, then vertical and high and spinning, proper wargames by the look of it, trouble is they have a massive radius to 'play' in.

Are there no pilots that check out these forums ?
 
D Pilots are frequent visitors to all of the lowfly forums after all they can't take pics of themselves cheers for the info much appreciated.

I was ,attempting and failing, to photo some wild otters up in the north west and had some serious overhead distractions.No idea what the planes were, but it appeared some larger ones were chasing some smaller ones.

My lack of aviation knowledge really shows in this post,sorry.....:bonk:
