2 minutes ago the Lancaster flew directly over my house at just a few hundred feet.
What a fantastic sight and the sound was incredible. Gonna have to go find an airshow now Cheers |

It happens to me at every Farnborough air show few times over with the spit and hurri in formation, the thing I love is the smell!

Yeah, happened to me a few years ago it was in formation with the memorial flight partners - messrs spit and hurri, sounded fantastic, thought it was the usual police chopper going over till the sound just got louder and louder and the 'whole shack shimmied', awesome

Saw it last year in Manchester on Veteran's Day. I was stuck in a dull meeting at the top of some high rise hotel and it flew past us at about the same height. All the men in suits (myself included) stopped what we were discussing and dashed to the window for a better look. It's an awesome sight!

Same for me... I used to live in Fleet.... The mod Lanc should be finished within 6 months... |

I used to live on top of a hill in Aldershot, great place to be when the're around! I couldn't believe how low they were flying.
|

|
I live in Romford and used to live in Dagenham, it flys over these areas a few times a year....love it!

An Apache Helicopter flew very low over me yesterday as I was near Matlock, Derbyshire.
------------------------------------------------------------- "Over Dieppe, the wing was immediately bounced by a hundred FW 190s and a few Me 109s. I heard Johnson effing and blinding as he broke 610 into a fierce attack. I was hard at it dodging 190s, but I found time to speak sharply to Johnson about his foul language." - WingCo Jaime Jameson 12 Group Spitfire |

An Apache would be cool, I get those twin rotor jobbies (Chinooks ?) all the time.
It's a bit of a pain when there are 3 or 4 of them, stuff falls of shelves and my place feels like it's gonna rattle off down the hill. Cheers |

It is always a great experience when one of these large birds flies over like that.
I assume that you didn't have time to grab a camera. @Xiolablu The Apache is a very comforting thing when you have a pair following you around in case things get a little dicey -PC Performance Aficionado and proud forum member since 2001 |

I work near an army base and a private airfield that is home to a few classic warbirds, so I see Chinooks, Lynx regularly and on monday I saw 2 Mustangs overhead
