Hey I know I'm not Scottish but I saw a news story about American war planes flying over Scottland pretty regularly lately. Has anyone wittnessed this?

We are on a training flight path. Twinned fighters, in real close formation, hurtling up our valley at about 150-200 ft: using our local Church as landmark to pivot, then five miles upriver to Dunkeld Cathedral, and hard back on the stick to get up and over the valley head wall, on the Higland fault line.
The explosive noise is enveloping: must be hellish to be attacked by these planes. Nervewracking to have them up your home valley, where ordinance could be dropped, you know not where.

These are probably from Leuchars, and possibly Tornados. Don't know what you yanks are running these days; don't think I could tell the difference, as they crack the peace barrier overhead.

There was a recent incident when two US fighters crashed in the Cairngorm mountains, about a hundred miles north of here (Perthshire). It seems such US fighter flying takes in the whole of UK airspace: the pilots who were killed, had passed through several air control zones, on their way North, hundreds of miles; and it was possibly language based misunderstanding that saw this air safety control break down, and the planes hit the mountain tops in mist.


How many of us Scots are there on CF? Is there a clever way to drill into the membership stats?
Virtual whisky, fish and chips, and neeps haggis and tatties, lochs and glens, wee Morags, and the sun going down over the ben.
Getting carried away.
There are no kilted and piping smilies.
