Almost without exception nobody got the track of the aircraft correct and pretty much had the aircraft flying over their house. Some of the participants lived 3 or 4 miles apart and were on both sides of the flight path.

I'm not saying you're wrong just that it's human nature to think the planes are flying over you when they aren't!

I know what you are saying, but I have photos, as I was testing my then ne 18-400mm camera lens
