Did anyone see a Hercules or B52 (or a big old plane of some sort) banking hard right and descending towards Barcombe (flying east) about 12.15 today? I was driving over the Cooksbridge level crossing towards Chailey and had to pull over as I really thought it was low enough to crash as it looked like it was struggling. It was really scary.

Might have been the Stroude's new run-a-bout, heard they were buying more land and a B52 may be needed to clear the birds off the sweetcorn....

Yes we saw it over Ringmer about that time - low enough and loud enough to frighten my little boy.
I also wondered whether it was going to crash!

My wife saw this plane at about 12:05pm flying over the A27 north of barham, so the timings match up as it is about 30 miles in a straight line from there to barcoombe. I showed her a picture of a hercules and she said it was definately one of them. must of been a low flying training exercise.
My wife thought the same thing, it looked like it was about to crash, scared her to bits.

I like the walk along the ouse to Hamsey church, the view from the top of the Castle, Pells pool, the antique shops and boot fair, the lion in the window of the 15c bookshop, keere street
