[livejournal.com profile] ias and I live less than a kilometre and a half from Southampton Airport, and about half a kilometre from the landing and takeoff flight path, so we're used to a lot of air traffic. What we weren't expecting to see was a rather low flyover by a B-1B Lancer with its wings swept full forward. Rather louder than we're used to, too. I guess that it's Farnborough this weekend, then?

Apparently, it was seen in the air near Basingstoke today by one of our ardent spotters :) Actually, he heard it first, named it, then went to the window to confirm... sad geek
