That's Wales in general at the moment - 60 to 50 to 40 to 50....makes accidents as people don't know if they are coming or going. Most just sit at 50 and just annoy everyone.

It's a bit awe-inspiring isn't it, when they howl by.

I had a 15 metre radio mast in the garden, back in France.  I'll swear the jet trainers used to target it when they were on manoeuvres. Used to be every Thursday morning they'd scream directly over the house in twos and threes.  On their way to an Electronic "Target" about 20Kms away that their mission was to "Ping" and then back to base.

Oh wow.   that must have been a sight to see.   The noise from them was incredible,  nothing like any other jet Ive heard,   much higher pitched I think.

I'm pretty sure they were below the minimum height at times, too.  One time, I was in the garden and I could see the pilot's head through the canopy. The noise was shattering.
