Flew over my house today (we own an ex-RAF house), unfortunately I was at work. I did get the following as a message from my partner

That aeroplane just flew over nearly pooped myself

So it was a loud one

I grew up a few miles from Cottesmore when the Tornadoes were stationed there, and remember how loud they were.

I took a late lunch today so I could watch them fly over BAE Samlesbury this afternoon. My wife and I got a final look at them before they retire. It bought back memories.seeing the trio flying past, and hearing them for a good while after.

Good to see that the Blue Circle radar is mentioned in Wikipedia! Not my favourite fast jet, Hunter, Vulcan and Buccaneer look much nicer but the end of an era.
