The sixth military jet has just flown over my office. They've been going over for about 20 minutes. Are we fighting someone?

We’ve just had a fast jet over head twice in Saddleworth which is on the borders of Greater Manchester and W Yorks...

We're just outside Nottingham, they may have missed the centre.

Apparently two Tornados were on their way to Leeds Bradford when one developed issues with its undercarriage and returned to base at RAF Marnham

There were 5 or 6. Or at least 5 or 6 fly overs.

Definitely not 5 or 6 - you’ll have heard the same pair/3-ship twice.

Didn't sound like multiple engines. It sounded like one engine 5-6 times. Unless it was 3 of them well spread out I suppose.

It's fixable...

Don't mention Rotherham. I did, but I think I got away with it...
