Posted on behalf of Sue

I wondered if anybody could shed light on an Airoplane I keep seeing over silsden and steeton. It looks like an old war type plane, Khaki green in colour. It flies very low. I often see it when on the canal at Silsden (Kildwick side), it looks like it only just makes it over Sisden moor. Others have seen it, but we have no idea what it is and why it is flying so low.

Many Thanks Sue

If it's flying lower than 500 feet take it's number and report it to the relevant authorities.
With the airport so close much of the area around here is 'regulated air space' and a dim view is taken of anyone not adhering to the rules.

sue, don't know what type of plane it is, but have also seen it several times over last month, and you're right it is extremely low.
