Typhoon over Edinburgh
Anyone else see / hear the solo Typhoon flying over the city centre at 11.30am? Looked like up the Royal Mile route used on Tattoo flypasts. Seemed to turn south thereafter.

Came rocketing straight over my office in Tollcross, much to everyone's surprise! Like you say it appeared to be following the exact route used for the flypasts in August... practice run perhaps?

Seemingly an army parade was being had on the castle esplanade. Caused a bit of consternation amongst those who didn't know it was coming, ie, everyone in the city apart from the army!

Had just come out of the lift in my office and was standing in the reception when I heard it going over. Shame I wasn't quick enough to get out in time.
