Walking along the seafront at Gorleston around 1345 I saw a jet coasting in, heading west. It caught my attention for two reasons.
First it was very hard to see it - all I could make out was a vague grey shape.
Second it was making a very strange grinding/grumbling noise. This then stopped as soon as the jet was slightly inland. This was when I lost sight of it.
Anyone else seen/heard it and can confirm what it was.
BTW I don't claim it was an Aurora or any one of those exotic things. Probably just an F15 with indigestion......

Re: Strange sounding jet
Although unlikley an F22 ,was it similar to this? F35's Are very 'Throaty' in my opinion.

I can confirm hearing unidentified jet noise as I was strolling along the beach at…. Gorleston. However, I did not see them but considered the sound to be at least a pair of jets.

Re: Strange sounding jet
I was in and around Wittering area late this morning and heard something similar. Nothing seen, and nothing over the airfield
the F22 video did not have the crackling, rumbling that i heard

There's no "go-round" in a glider.
