on a military note, for 2 days, we have had a 70 year old Hawker Hunter fly low level over our house, doing about 4 or 5 loops then going back down the coast to Leeming, nicer than the usual going into Newcastle Airport
Thank you for mentioning this - there was a right old racket the other day, but it was cloudy and FlightRadar could only tell me that whatever it was, was at 2000ft and had taken off from Leeming. I noticed that it descended to about 1500ft and that a couple of the Cobham Aviation aircraft from Teesside were off the coast, so I assumed that it was doing intercept training. Mystery solved!
