    for me has to be milldenhall,when ian black did one of the last shows in a lightning just as the f16 had finished,prior to the day i was chatting to him and he wasnt happy with the yanks and was gonna show em how its done…
    hell did he show em, high speed pass between 2 trees at the end of the runwy so low that it blow my mum off a tin toilet in the campsite, then promptly went vertical with a nice tail slide,and a climb to xx,xxxft after i chatted with him and he said he came in a little tooo low between the trees and too quick,he was close to mach 1,think he said 0.9
    a little is a understatement,the yanks said to him that they could never beat the rate of climb of the lightning.
    to this day i have never seen a aircraft soo low or fast.
    finningley with the blue angels was outstanding,and to top it all off the vulcan at waddington made me feel like a little boy again.

    think some on here need to see the reports that get made to the police round yorkshire, and i take it what pilots see isnt aurora or unknown aircraft ether….
    i know what we saw as do others the problem nowadays is its all “ya ya ya you saw a ufo”
    we get aircraft over here all the time from tucarnos, us spec forces herc at 10 at night to awacs on circular training we know where they fly,over york the miliary flight tracks where they fly didnt include where this thing was going ether.
    when i was younger i lived near skipton, now near there is a radio mast run by the mod,near carlton now this has and always will be talked about for strange things happening and when the police come to your door and ask things. you tell me everything in the skys above the uk are just full of aircraft.
    ok most videos and pics are just aircraft but some accounts are not normal,do black project aircraft fly YES have people in the uk seen things YES, do they fly from the uk YES.macrianish in scotland was always said to be the perfect place for a takeoff.

    i have only ever seen it once in all my time well me and my other half.it was a strange noise too,a very distant sound,over north york we know we saw something not in any aircraft register book. ive seen aircraft go fast but hell not this fast dohnuts at a angle of id say 80deg vertical we counted about 20 of them and it was gone.what ever it was it was very high.
    oh and milldenhall at about 3am once when 3 aircraft tookoff but only the 2 on the outside had there lights on, the middle one had non.not the normal at that time of day

    i always got told with a dslr the lens is different to a 35mm, so say 200mm is actually 290mm something to do with the way dslr works.
