Hi all does anyone know what was happening with the Typhoons over Edinburgh This Morning, Saw them on FR24 & heard at least one of them. Was visiting a family member & had FR24 on.

Perhaps they were "casing the joint" for a potential Tattoo visit.

That’s exactly what I thought too Aly Bally. Oh that would be great to see the Tattoo Flypasts return!👍.

It was Apollo flight, when I saw them tracking they were at 35,000ft - did they drop down lower?

Would think the Tattoo would get Lossie Typhoons rather than Coningsby, plus 41 hardly ever do flypasts - it will probably have been a test flight as normal.

Ah I didn’t realise it was 41 Sqdn think they’ve done a couple of PDs at Edinburgh in the past.
