An RAF pilot told a US Air Force plane he "had every right to be there" after being accused of flying too close to US parachutists in Norfolk, a report said.

A US Hercules from Mildenhall, Suffolk was training over Sculthorpe in Norfolk at the same time an RAF Tornado was flying nearby in November.

The UK Airprox Board, which investigates near-misses, concluded both planes had the right to be flying.

The board said better co-ordination was needed between both air forces.

The Tornado GR4 was one of a pair from RAF Marham in Norfolk which were taking part in their own exercise.

Sounds like someone messed up with the air traffic.

I thought you were talking about on here...
"When in doubt use full throttle. It may not improve the situation but it will end the suspense ".
