Two fighter jets just blammed over the house. (Well, and lots of other houses)

In 14 years of living here I've never seen that before.

@donut .....did you see 'em?

Very odd.
 
Did you get pics?

Yes, of course I did.

In the time it took for them to whiz by, I had time to come indoors, take the camera out of the pack, strap on the 70 - 200, go back outside, compose and shoot.

Ya loon :lol:

Well in that case I would hope you also asked them to park up and invite us all down there too :D

Absolutely.
I told them to park up in Asda's car park :lol:
 
Its why the lens should stay on the body...makes it quicker to get vital shots. Innit :D

As it were, I'd love a 70-200.

It won't fit in the bag on the body lol

Still in love with the lens though :-)

It happened to me the other year, when the Battle of Britain squadron (Spitfire, Hurricane and Lancaster) flew over the house in formation, and the camera was upstairs in its case, with the 135mm and extension tubes attached to it:(.
I think you may see a few more this year though, particularly if you are around Rochester at the time of the Summer concerts. We had a Hurricane warming up for the evening concert over the Medway valley, but the light was a bit dim, so I just sat in a chair with the binoculars enjoying the show.

Yeah I've seen them going up the valley too in the past.
Maybe this had something to do with today's commemorations.

Definitely, and I think that most of the aircraft this year will be sporting "invasion stripes" (black and white stripes on fuselage and wings) to commemorate the D Day landings.

I just hope that they were well within the 30 MPH limit for a built up area, else there will be questioned asked,
mark my words!

More likely height restrictions over built up areas. There are rules you know. ;)
