F18's o/h Prestatyn

[MADWOP]

Sorry it's a bit late.

Heard fast jets yesterday at approx. 15:25 rushed outside in time to see one F18 heading south down
the Clwyd valley (later confirmed as two jets by a neighbour).
Looking at REAPER493's log for Waddington this morning (thank you) could have been BLADE01 188735 and 188742, times tally.
As usual nothing showing on ADS-B
Hope this is of use to someone.
Very rare to see fast jets other than Valley Hawks around here.
However last September the German Tonkas paid us a visit as did the Belgian F16's last April.
Don't know what the attraction is here but keep them coming.

Mike.

They've been doing the loop then heading north for the Lakes LL. Hopefully another sortie today giving different crew a tour of the UK countryside.

Thanks for the reply, these were heading south(ish) probably lakes first then the loop?
Thanks anyway.

For the record the Fri 22 Sep sortie was scrubbed. There was a biblical rain shower mid afternoon in LFA17 but the weather was good when they'd have been coming through. I did look out for them.
