Just back from picking my Mum up from a stay with her brother in Hythe, near Southampton. She said yesterday a very noisy jet flew low over the house yesterday tea time, but it was gone by the time she had got to the window:rolleyes:
My uncle said he’d never known a jet to fly over like that, and my old Mum is a bit of an aircraft enthusiast 😀 and she told me it sounded just like the military jets she’d heard over the years at airshows etc.
My suspicion is of course it might have been G-CVIX bearing in mind the location……does anybody know if she was in the air yesterday….?????
