it was certainly hindering my sleep this morning following a long night at work , just hope if it was an emergency service everyone was ok , however if it was the press or a personal flight I think a tiny bit higher would have been considerate to those living in it flight past

It looked like a G-LECA, possibly doing surveying work judging by the way it was hovering back and forth over a few different areas in the vicinity.

Doubt it, Cico. Even if there is a 'big cat' roaming around, what would be the point of searching for it and removing it from it's natural environment? Besides, certain domestic cat breeds can be on the massive side, with markings that resemble a wild cat. I've even heard of wallabies roaming the Downs, but I'm sure that's a myth!
tis a mystery!

infra red survey of overhead electricity cables, faults show up on I/R long before failure occurs, its flights are low and proactive. this unit also can detect hot roofspaces and hot rooms, its equipment can locate likely grow rooms. so when spotted flying over built up areas, be prepared to harvest or dispose of any lupins growing in unused rooms
