I came home once in Bristol, UK and there was a Harrier hovering a few tens of feet above my house slowly rotating. I do not know why it was there. I lived at the end of a runway.

It left once I pulled into my driveway.

Concorde used to miss my roof by a very short amount when it would land on the runway, and everything would jiggle off my shelves.
