If you see something low level please make a note of it in this thread rather than having several, trying to tidy the spot up a bit and save searching for things. ;D ;D

Only 2 Jaguars left in service, and they will be out of service at the end of the month, i think when 6 sqd finally disband.

Saw a couple of Jag's a couple of weeks ago flying up Bassenthwaite Lake. Looks like I'll be lucky to see any more.
What will happen to them all? Are other air forces still using them?

It's been madness at Distington today, our works have been buzzed at least 4 times, guessing 1 x Hawk (10.30am) and the rest tonkas (12.00 / 14.00 / 16.15). Lots of distant rumbles too and i didn't have my scanner with me, typical!

I have heard a lot of rumbles yesterday, and today....just wondering wether it's medium level traffic or low level stuff in the distant hills.
