Six of them have been based at RAF Fairford for the past couple of weeks doing exercises around the Norwegian Sea.

You never know, if someone was in the right place at the right time they might be able to get a B-52 and a Tu-95 in the same photo.........Rockhopper wrote:Six of them have been based at RAF Fairford for the past couple of weeks doing exercises around the Norwegian Sea.

Re: Lost?
Yes it was, hard to estimate with them being so big but I am up on the hillside above the village and I wasn't looking more straight ahead than up. You can see from the photographs they are quiet side on.

Re: Lost?
Most everything you can imagine that the RAF have at their disposal fly over where I live, to numerous to make a list of, but the boys who fly the Jet bombers delight in flying as low as possible and when they see some poor unsuspecting guy on his roof tend to make another pass directly above and as low as possible just to frighten the crap out of you, hey they certainly do as they intended!
That’s not all, the American flyers use the cars on the bypass as simulated targets.

Not just the Norwegian Sea area, as they have been flying 'probing flights' very close to Russian borders from the Arctic and the Baltic right down to the Med and the Black Sea areas.Rockhopper wrote:Six of them have been based at RAF Fairford for the past couple of weeks doing exercises around the Norwegian Sea.

At one time you could regularly get "targeted" by RAF Tornados and Harriers whilst trout fishing from a boat on Nant-y-Moch reservoir in Mid Wales.Gundog wrote:
