Yes, I was sitting on my front door step stroking my cat when I heard a jet fighter sound overhead. It was two B-2s and I missed them (thanks to pussy!). I had seen the same 2 aircraft the day before at a distance trailing over the North sea off the North Yorkshire coast but gutted that they had flown directly overhead and missed them (clear skies)!

I went to see them today about an hour after they left.

I blame MRTT. He made it happen like that!

Has it not been deferred to pay for repairs to bases hit by Hurricane Dorian

Sorry it’s the Border Wall it’s helping to pay for with quite a few improvement projects deferred all over

Yep, got plenty of video of them to look back on. With that zoom you could probably see the audience at the other end :lol:

Bummer! Just decided to check if it's worth going tomorrow since I might actually make it and they've gone for good, always next year hopefully!

So, I'm sitting in the dark not far from Fairford and I am pretty sure a B2 has just gone overhead...is that right?
