Out of interest anyone know why we getting these movements late in the evening? My elderly parents live on flight path and the one they other night was horrendous.
I heard it and I thought it was a normal plane in trouble!

Doubt anyone is going to know why the RAF do what they do and why. Night time training is just as important as day time, but why they choose to do it at a civil airport overflying the country's 3rd biggest city at 1030pm I wouldn't know, but I suspect that the airport are not in a position to say no if open.

Personally, living just to the side if the flight path, I saw the Typhoon earlier in the week but only because I was looking out for it. I heard the noise briefly as the aircraft started to climb but otherwise heard almost nothing due to the NE wind. And yesterday's passed me by completely. Heard nothing at all.

Yes they can say no. In the mid 1970s I used to be stationed at RAF Scampton in operations on the odd occasion I would book a Practise Diversion to civilian airfields for either a Vulcan or a Hastings sometimes the airfield would "No"
