I'm currently in Bridport and for the last half hour or so there's been almost continuous long low rumbles of aeroplane noise from about the NW direction. Where could it be coming from? Exeter is in that direction but didn't think it would be that busy.

B1s were over Yeovil about 50 minutes ago, probably them being refuelled in the air. They've been doing it loads over the Dorset, Devon, Cornwall coast for the last few months with the ongoing Iran war.

Single B1 has been circling Yeovilton for 90mins.

I think it just came over us just south of Swindon on its way home.

(Spotters FB group says..) B-1 with ejector seat fault, had to burn off fuel before returning to base.
