I have taken to watching flight radar 24 occasionally to pass time during the past year. I have been interested in aircraft since I was a very young kid, which is partly what got me interested in ordnance.
I had been hearing very loud, low droning turboprops passing overhead, usually during the night for the last few years.
It turns out that some of the loudest can be Antonov AN-12 and AN-26 turboprop transports. These can sometimes seem like they make the building slightly vibrate when passing at heights of over 20,000 feet.
I now often find myself opening the page when I hear any aircraft passing overhead. I also frequently see RAF A400Ms passing over London, often flying from RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus.
Worth a look if you are at all interested in aircraft.
