Piper PA34 circling low over SW london..what was it doing?
Discussion
This morning circa 8:40am, there was a Piper PA34 - registration G-AZOL circling over Chelsea and Fulham, at a relatively low height.
It was low enough for me to read its registration with just normal eyes, and in terms of height - it was well under 200 meters - I had as a reference point the empress state building which google tells me is 117m high, and the plane was significant under twice the height of that.
I presume some kind of aerial photography? - as it seemed to be following an overlapping course.
The reason I noticed initially due to the sound of the piston engines - hearing a brace of unsilenced inline sixes, is a wonderful sound
