This afternoon 2 aircraft flew low over Silsden @1.45, they were about 1000ft high, ww2 aircraft I would say. Did anyone else see them and if so could you identify them. It was a beautiful sight.

Hi Middy,
Someone asked about two planes that flew past Silsden 1.45ish this afternoon.
I was bird watching in Wharfedale and got photographs of what I would imagine to be the same two plus a helicopter soon after, use them if you wish.
