  • Seems unlikely that they were SAS planes if they were doing laps of the Thames, I believe they did 3 passes in the end, but may have been more?

    Again, if they were on their way to Duxford from Mildenhall, London is a pretty big diversion involving flying past Duxford to get to London.

  • and @Fox - this is a bit late but seeign as you mentioned it - I have a Chinnok fly right by our place every Tuesday evening . It seems to be doign a sort of u-turn like it's the edge of the area it patrols. We live just off the river.

    Any idea what the purpose of these flights are and why they are so regular? I've always been curious.

    I do see the occassional Chinook of a weekend flying over my allotment too but they are on a different route.
