The Clarkson's Farm star, who lives in Chadlington near Chipping Norton, said several General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcons were “circling” his home this morning for half an hour.
On Twitter, the broadcaster said: “Dear the US Airforce. Why have three F16s been circling over my house for the last 30 minutes?

Flightrade24, a live air traffic website, didn’t show any F-16 aircrafts flying over Chadlington but there was a Short SC-7 Skyvan 3M-400, which is a British 19-seat twin-turboprop aircraft, flying overheard with no destination at the time.
The flight left Kemble in Gloucestershire at about 9.30am and appeared to be flying in no particular pattern.
