Its all yours problems if you wish to take offence, it was not aimed at anyone on here

The OP isn't the one that used an offensive word and has not kicked up a fuss. It was a totally legitmate question by the OP to which I answered with the correct contact details.
ETA - hubby has just informed me he was fly fishing at a loch way up in the mountains yesterday on the westcoast near Malliag - a jet went over him really really low, to the extent he had to hold the rod between his knees and cover his ears. He said he could see the pilots and as they went over they tipped their wings each way to him! lol
Did the OP not use T**T am not offended by that but I would imagine people who have husbands etc in that will take offense to it
If young horses where exposed to these things as youngsters and trained properly then they would not be scared of these things.
Too many people spend too much time schooling horses in the safe environment of an arena rather than exposing them to the things they are likely to encounter.
And yes, my husband is a Tornado GR4 pilot which is why I found it offensive.
And yes I do know that they have to carry out training. But two planes have just flown over very low and scared the horses knocking over one of us and then flown back 5 minutes later upsetting them again.
I would like to report this to the RAF I think it will be Kinloss for Scotland but not sure.
ahhhhhhhhh, makes sense now. We have wondered whats afoot with all the action in the sky at the moment.
My horse used to be kept in Leuchars so he is well used to them; however - i was utterly at 2 chinooks coming down to land in a field that had had daffodils in it immediately behind our house!! They came so close to landing then went up again... surely there must be somewhere more remote to do that!?

Just realised how old this thread is and I'd already commented !
I just saw it when I checked the today's posts, didn't read when it was started, but I stand by my comments. Especially with what's going on in the world at the mo!
I don't see people up in arms because a lorry used it's brakes to stop for you and it's air brakes spooked your horse, or a child has come running out "to see the nice horsey" and sent your horse into orbit and in my experience these are far more common occurences, despite always being next to or very near to airfields and low flying areas!
