Lots of jet noise over the house all day but mostly 100% cloud cover and I only got to see one aircraft in a patch of blue sky for a few seconds and luckily it turned out to be the D-Day Heritage paint scheme F15 high over North Norfolk! (Heavily cropped).

If you can keep your head whilst all around are losing theirs, you have probably completely misread the situation!!

Chinook flying past the Flat here in Chatham. Due to having the wrong lens on the Camera, the image is heavily cropped.

Great shots Hoppy.

Any chance of you zooming in on the code on the first one?

My eyes are not good enough!

Cheers

Thanks Trevor, and believe me, I've tried!

If it had been a colder day the air would have been cleaner and I might have cracked it, but I just can't quite read it any of my shots :@

Lowest, closest pass by an A400, ZM416 Ascot484, I have ever seen from the garden today, near Stalham in North Norfolk, and he wasn't hanging about either, very dramatic to see. Certainly gave the Wood Pigeons a scare! Unfortunately while I was downloading the photos I missed a Hercules doing the same thing!

Not the best shot but the neighbour's house roof gives an idea of how low it was
