I still look up when hear aeroplane or helicopter! In London it means every 2 minutes haha. You can see flying jewels like MV22 Osprey, but most often it's police EC 145, flying all over the place and spying on people. Quite often it's Air Ambulance's MD902, without a tail rotor, which makes them ideal for landing in tight space. RAF Apache gunships are rare, not like Chinooks, which often roll in a pair. Surprisingly not many private helicopters fly around, but when they do, it's usually tiny R44 or Bell? (left down corner). Oh and of course loads of boring civilian planes flying low for City Airport. (at London, United Kingdom)
