Hi SF,
Yeah I'm fully aware of the Tikaboo sighting, pity they weren't alert enough to get imagery
As for the other pics, I was never happy with folks saying "that's definitely a SR-71 or A12" , even accounting for varying angles (bank / turn etc) the proportions are wrong, nose is too long to the canopy, nacelles are too short and above the fuselage line. see comparison pic below
Pattern became clear enough – It comes in high, very high over Cornwall, gets lower over wales and hits Scotland at altitudes low enough to be visible. We decided we should start to organize a hill walking holiday.

Well, this is an interesting little piece of detective work from a British group that that I’ve not heard of before.

Whnever I sit down to reverse engineer a supposed “black” project, one of the first things I look for is internal consistency in the story. This story has a lot of internal consistency.

I can’t say anything definitive about the authenticity of the photos, but the 3 that show a wedge shaped craft all seem to my eye to show the same shape as seen from slightly different angles.

It looks different but if the SR-71 was banked slightly the left engine and wing higher than the right its not far off. If you squash the SR-71 a bit it pulls the proportions in. Not an exact match but too similar IMO to be a different craft.

Thanks for the thread really interesting read. I like the fact the Uk plays a role is the 'fast movers' it's gives me slight hope that one day I might witness something I shouldn't. I often visit Scotland as much as a I can and I always dream of when I'm walking in the hills and especially camping out at night they something is going to show its face to me.
Now Scotland is quite mountainous but still has some sparsely populated areas so I would imagine it's quite easy to have an airfield out of the way to land these fast movers. The only one I've looked into or have thought that I wouldn't mind spying on for a week or two is Cambeltown airport located on the west coast of Scotland I've heard rumours about that place but from what I've recently read it's now a civilian airfield too so I doubt they use it for anything secret any more

that platform was on the ground in Scotland at least 3 times during the time they indicated, the nose design is fine for very high speed (remember X43a)
From my understanding and contact with an old service friend (RAF) it and another bigger platform were regular visitors to Scotland during testing, from his description the yanks managing the european sections of the development were amazed at the success of both and hence it went into limited operational usage in the ME and further afield but no UK personnel were allowed anywhere near either and even the ATC's were swapped out for yanks when those beauties were in town.

Also dont forget that doctor who wrestled a alien in the woods that killed his dog and then took the alien home but it came back to life and berated him with a squeeky voice that sounded like someone rubbing a balloon together. But if course the alien mysteriously disappearded. 🙊
