The Plane! The Plane!
Didn't really know where to put this question apart from here.
Is there a statutory height that fighter planes and other craft are supposed to fly above houses.
Yesterday I went into the garden and a jet flew that low over my house, I could tell the time by the pilots watch.
I seem to live in some sort of flight path. They have flown so low that car alarms have been activated.

Thanks heathfield for the info. I know it maybe a necessary duty for military to use the landscape for training purposes but over residential areas where people's hearing may be affected by the jet thrusts is not being very considerate.
I suppose I could complain but have a feeling not much would happen to resolve it.

It's in England john91; The South-East to be more precise.
I know it may seem funny but one day, after I'd not long moved to the house I'm in at the moment, some relatives came to stay and while I was standing in the garden my brother-in law said, What's it like around here?
I replied, Very quiet apart from the planes.
He said, What planes?
And at that very moment a huge herculean type plane roared over the house. Because of the height it travelled you couldn't hear it until it was directly overhead.
My Brother-in law nearly cr@pped himself.
I suppose someone might say if it bother's me that much why don't I move?

I live in an area where the military do low flying exercises . They are supposed to have a minimum height level but i don't
think much is done to ensure it is enforced. My mother puts her hand on top of her head when a plane goes over very low,causes amusement as to how her hand will protect her head!!!!
