Now there's a rare sight and sound.

Passed over Bury St Edmunds not much later. I can only think of it being here for Fairford (but not listed on the Tattoo's website - maybe just a visitor), and guess that it had departed early and was perhaps heading for an easy UK exit via Norwich (customs airport).

Hello,
I just checked on to the forum looking for info' or to post a question of what I heard/saw at around 1-40pm today...

Viewed from Gunby, East Lincolnshire...it was heading North at about the level described...it would have been perhaps passing overhead the Spilsby area..as I was only seeing it way in the distance but even so I was sure I had seen a twin tail.

It is brilliant to just be in the right place at the right time and witness a rare overflight..

All the best,
Clive.
