    An F15 just flew overhead quite loudly - I say quite loudly because i'm currently deaf in one ear and it was loud. Just checked FlightRadar and its done a few circles around to the East of London, flew over town and has gone back East again. I wonder what's going on?

    • It remembers me when in the 90s a pair of A10 were doing exercises around the mountains in my town...OBBTKN
    • Probably making its presence known. I still find it sexy as hell when I get to hear one, even after serving a year at the Air Force.

    • I'm surprised they'd be allowed to 'make their presence known' over London. Seems like it was all pre-planned, so nothing to see here, but still...Nairn
    • @OB: I'd love be to see an A10 flying nearby, just contextually, not on strafing runs...Nairn
