Looks like an R44. Lucky it wasn't a jet turbine, then that would have been loud :D

You may be lucky and he was just visiting friends on a one off.

A few years ago a military 'copter was forced to land in a field next to the main road about 6 miles away from here.

Within the hour one of the local 'comedians' had placed a sign on the grass verge.

There was something on the radio about this yesterday, must admit I was only half listening. Bloke on Jeremy Vine's tabloid radio show talking about nuicance neighbours.

Helicopter landing about 20 ft from someones garden fence. You can land on agricultural land up to 28? days a year with landowner's permission. If the helicopter owner also owns the land, he can do what he likes.

Local Authority/CAA/Police were all useless, blaming each other :roll:
