What's just flown over Kings Lynn?

[Woody3]

My sister has just phoned me to say that she's just seen something like the Vulcan fly over Kings Lynn with 3 jets following.

Just wondered what it was?

I believe it could be B2 Stealth Bombers

Yep, 2x B2s, they did 2 laps over our house (mid Norfolk), flying N to S, may still be up there judging by the on-going noise. We do also also have a C130 Hercules doing continuous loops over Norfolk too- visible on FR24 just now. It’s all a bit as to what is going on.

I was right. They are scoping out Denmark's radar defences before they go in for the attack.

Or else they've spotted a hurricane forming in the Skaggerak and are going to nuke it.

Just had The Arrows overhead practising for Bournemouth Air Show, maybe something in transit?

Darn it, I was kind of hoping they were on the way to level Great Yarmouth (thereby carrying out £x millions of improvements )

The Red Arrows? If so, it wasn't, the red Arrows are currently on tour in North America, it could be some other display team. I'm planning to go to Bournemouth on Saturday, so will see which display teams are there.

Ah, thank you! That explains why she thought it was a kite at first!
