They've got a few. Potter back and forth between Southampton, Guernsey and East Mids a few times a day.

If my mate is to be believed, it spends a lot of time NOT flying and forcing him to ride with the common people on FlyBe rather more often than he would like

Poor dear!

I had a look they have 2 not a few like I said.

They don't make £30m profit by letting any old oik swan about in their private planes, y'know!

Blue and white Dauphin (you know who) doing high speed runs round Manchester today, been in and out 3 or 4 times now in the last hour. Probably exercise I guess.

Hopefully just coincidental, given the events of this evening.

I would not like to say but they were knocking about I assumed an op or possibly PM kicking about somewhere.

Looks to me like a series of NDB (Non Directional Beacon) and TACAN (Tactical Air Navigation Beacon) holds and approaches.

I would warrant it's a Monthly Staff Continuation Training sortie.

Saw two jets flying in close formation around Guildford, could have been this on Flightradar originating from Lakenheath.

heard that today - I live in Guildford and it was making really a lot of noise.

Any idea what kind of jet was that? Military?

Arguably not "cool" but here's the boss dropping into the office before heading to watch the Rugby.

Always fun to watch the area around Nice about half an hour to an hour after the Monaco GP. See some interesting stuff. A gaggle of G600s left Nice about an hour after the race.

Looked like F-15s. Twin tail whatever they were.

I like this one. A perfect example of how weather affects air traffic. A nice big cell moving up the Channel.

On 360radar you can have a weather layer but it's become subscription only, which I think was a bit early for them considering their coverage and other factors.

Or become a contributer and get it for free

Something interesting just went over Colchester but unfortunately I was attending to something & couldn't look out of the window, any clues?

See that quite a lot up here, lives at Doncaster (Finningly) as a norm. A rare sight, for something that was so common once.
