I've just heard an odd sounding aircraft and looked up to see what I think was a osprey over my house. (North Lincs) google suggests that they're not routinely operated in the uk with some mentions of 2 being at mildenhall last year but no more info.
Is it likely to have been an osprey?
What else could it have been.

I believe its 6 that are a permanent feature in the UK for now (sorry Eric - UK = United Kingdom) they have been a regular feature in the UK low flying system for over a year. As far as I'm aware though they are starting to stretch their wings a bit more which is brilliant for us that don't live in the east.
I was messing about in the sea at a beach just west of Malibu in California back ni June when I heard something odd fly over- I'm quite short sighted and didn't have my glasses on in the sea- when I quizzed my wife about what the two odd sounding aircraft/helicopters were she perfectly described an Osprey ("a bit like the weird helicopters in Avatar ). Gutted I didn't see them
