Low Flying Plane(S). S12

Recommended Posts

Hi.

 

About once a week I hear low flying planes late at night (well, around 10pm). I can hear it now, circling back around every few minutes or so.

 

Anyone else heard it?

Yep!  It’s circling round now, and has been for about 15 minutes

I noticed it happen probably June the first time, probably the 4th time I've noticed now. Very odd

Yup, NPAS have four fixed wing aircraft based at Doncaster (like this one - https://www.flickr.com/photos/62940958@N05/50128165098), the advantage of these being that they're more capable so can be deployed for much longer periods of time and cover a far greater area - they're also cheaper to operate and maintain than helicopters.

It's not just at night, they're out whenever needed, they were out quite a bit yesterday.
