A bit of help in working out what’s circling above my house near Wetherby.

It’s happening now and similar times last night.

Low loud jet noise. Coming round 2 or 3 times at half hour gaps.

Last night on flight radar it showed up for one pass from the North Sea and varied hiefht between 4K and 9k altitude. It said it was a dassault fa20, but no other info. Then it disappeared. Tonight no trace on fr24, but can hear it in the house

Any ideaS?

Dave.

Probably user error, but it opens as an empty map for me......no planes

They did something with website a few months ago thanks to Google trying to pull their pants down.

FA20 falcon will be cobhams as already mentioned. They have a fleet at Durham Tees Valley that provide support to the Air Force and a fleet at Bournemouth that provide support to the Royal Navy.

That’s the badger. Just watched a couple of vids and the noise is the same as the Falcon.

Thanks
