Biplane 07-09-23 Part 1 of 2
There is a red and white biplane that flies over our farm. I don't know why but He likes to circle our farm, several times and then leaves. I tried making a video of it. Today I decided to try and make some pictures out of it. I narrowed it down to 23.

@tryingtosurvive2024 I wonder why he likes circling your farm🤔🤔 it's a nice looking plane though ❤
@Tinywhisper11 I thought maybe He was giving someone a ride, but I only can make out one person in the cockpit.
@tryingtosurvive2024 perhaps he's a learner or beginner
@Tinywhisper11 One year we had a guy almost fly into our barn.
@tryingtosurvive2024
that plane has such potential, aerobics and so much lift. That’s the kind of barrel roll plane.
Why do you question its presence?
Would you like to fly?
I used to fly archer light aircraft. Watching those acrobatic planes go up with skilled pilots can make you feel sick just observing..
if you see a trail that’s not forming letters intentionally then it’s just a private pilot. Oh and in engine failure the ability to glide to a safe ish landing is almost always guaranteed. Stalling and engine failure is part of the exams .
@LabeledBPD He doesn't do stunts.
@tryingtosurvive2024
its within the plane’s capacity, pilots 🤷🏻♀️. So maybe as previously mentioned his or her is learning, building up their type rating in unrestricted airspace.
I can imagine how invasive it may feel when your privacy is removed with some above you.
A 1000ft … though you’d need binoculars to see a human with the natural eye
@LabeledBPD How does one know if you are in unrestricted airspace?
@tryingtosurvive2024 are you in the uk?
@tryingtosurvive2024
most unbuilt up areas are either in restricted or a lower grading.
air space has classifications depending on height and location.
so the same air space at 1000ft could have a different one at 12,000ft.
Then there’s more general sweeping classifications when buildings are involved.
It incredibly complicated. A field however would likely be G and no air traffic control, with no frequency. That said they don’t like dangerous or suspicious flying.
Best way to find out is google air space restrictions where you are or in your country.
@tryingtosurvive2024
likely circles your farm as it’s unrestricted air space and preaching aerobics will likely only harm some plants in a field if it goes wrong.
Even if not practicing aerobatics, air space restrictions on such manoeuvres is kinda strict. Your filed likely has no air traffic control and airspace classification.
@LabeledBPD What he does is a bit weird. Flying low, He shows up and circles us a few times, and then goes over a near by housing development and circles them several times and leaves. He does this several times over the summer. I got no idea why.
@tryingtosurvive2024
that does seem like weird behaviour. Who owns the plane? They have markings for a reason of identification. Like any radio control with air traffic our golf bravo 21 foxtrot is like a license plate.
Have you looked into the ownership of the plane?
that plane is not designed for espionage, that said anything well all most anything is possible.
you can make complaints to the CAA , civil Aviation Authority, in the uk. There’s likely some other authority where you are.
If they are causing you distress and concern I hope they could clear it up.
even unrestricted air space is governed by the CAA, just normally without involvement.
@tryingtosurvive2024
in a plane like that it is weird… it’s not cheap to maintain due to (MOT kinda thing they need) like all planes. Hanger storage charges, and then aviation fuel… on top.
Those are a labour of love unless you impress occasionally people with what that plane is capable of.
have a look at airspace restrictions where you are and get the tag on the wing clearly.report them to whoever manages your airspace. Uk is the CAA. Civil aviation authority
