Military jets over Manchester

[PunkAssMoFo]

Sat in the garden trying to get the last rays of sunshine before my neighbours giant tree takes over. I’ve counted 4 massive military jets flying over in the last hour. Delivering covid supplies maybe?

Do army jets show up on flight radar24?

I heard them because plane sounds are so rare at the minute. There's nothing online about them yet though.

Also in Greater Manchester and could hear the noise as windows open. Thought it was strange I could hear planes!

On Flight Radar, planes showing at Manchester Airport are:
1 - No callsign
2 - says DIL and no other info

Flight has also just taken off for Islamabad

Maybe flying supplies to build the planned morgue at BAe Warton.

Twitter mentions it and there is some thought it is training, they are doing circuits apparently.

Military jets dont often appear on FR24.

Nothing else in the area at all.

Freeware shows military flights

Freedar ffs!

Military flights are not on. Even mountain rescue doesn’t appear and that chopper flies over me every day

Actual jets? Or are you taking bigger cargo style planes?

‘Cos you’d fit fuck all of use in the cockpit of a F-35

Chill out everyone, they are practicing take off and landing on the massive runway at Manchester Airport. They are flying directly over my house. Neighbours queried it. There's footage in local FB page.

Watching to see if any more is revealed

Maybe someone was spotted sat by themselves on a bench in a park and they're off to dive bomb it.

I'm not worried about it - it's just unusual to hear planes at the minute.

Here you go. Local info. Calm the fuck down.

Cargo jets.

Perfectly chilled, just idly wondering.

@bellinisurge - nobody is panicking! We're just discussing unusual planes

Interesting. According to freedar one of them will be flying over my house very soon.

We’ve had a lot over us (not near Manchester and not unusual here) you can track them somewhere as someone posted it on our local FB page

I love watching military aircraft. I love relatively near an RAF base so you’d think it’d get old but I love looking out my windows at the sound of a Chinook trying to spot it.

They are doing touch-go training at man airport apparently.
They were at Luton yesterday. Taking advantage of clear air skies and empty airports to train up on landing at uk airports.

We live by another airport and it's all hope they'll be at ours later this week to watch 😁

We had this doing its rounds at LTN yesterday. The house was shaking before it came into land, but took off again and did this a good few times.

Photo would help.
