What has just gone over Redruth? Ospreys?

Post by Red Hound » Sun Jul 01, 2012 2:32 pm

Briefest of glimpses of at least 3 aircraft medium height seen through breaks in cloud. 3.30pm heading north easterly. Initial thoughts were Ospreys, which I haven't seen before

Ospreys, I saw 2 over Camborne, don't know how many were in the formation.
Enroute to Farnborough I believe.

I saw 3, possibly 4 and sounded as if there may have been others.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Hi,

Seen two Ospreys over Exmouth 15.50 heading East. Been reported there was four. I may well have missed the first two, certainly a clatter.

Saw them over St. Austell... Wow, what a sound. Its the first time in many years that I've looked up and thought "what the hell is that?"!!! Soon worked it out though!
