Great video. Loved the UK while stationed there with USAF. Wales was phenomenal.

Cheers 👌

Great stuff Elwyn, I had goosebumps watching that! Diolch!

@@ell442sugarbae8 WTF

Like mosquitoes. but heavier. woweee

Thanks! I was trying to figure this out through the whole video.

would we need to get a clearance or permit to go there at top and take photos?

​@@roaringcat14 no permits needed to stand on a public hillside and take pictures or videos. Just dont trespass or be an idiot by leaving litter or causing damage

Imagine experiencing this in nature.

The Son of God Jesus Christ came down from eternity and was born of a Virgin called Mary.God manifested in the flesh He was perfect and still is perfect Never committed one Sin. Because we us humans who are created beings are very sinful and need saving from our sins because the bible says Romans 6:23 King James Version 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Now the death in this verse means eternal death because sin builds a wage And the payment for our sins is eternal death in a literal fire burning hell for eternity. Revelation 21:8 King James Version 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Now because we have to be perfect to go to heaven and spend eternity in The kingdom of God with God not one Sin is allowed you see my friend it's not trying to be good enough to go to heaven we have to be perfect and we have a problem we all have Sin and still do Sin Romans 3:23 King James Version 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; So we can not do any works or even Good works to save ourselves from Hell for example water baptism Going to church trying not to Sin to go to heaven being a Good person We can not do any works to remove a sin because God says it is death for the sin Because sin is transgression of the law And to go to heaven by keeping the law we must be perfect not break it at any point keep it 100 percent perfect 1 John 3:4 King James Version 4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. Romans 3:20 King James Version 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. James 2:10 King James Version 10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. Galatians 2:21 King James Version 21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain. John 1:17 King James Version 17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 King James Version 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Trying to be Good by the works of the law to earn heaven as a reward will fail as shown in the scriptures The only one who has ever been on the earth with out commiting one Sin was Jesus The Christ the Son of God He is God who became The Son of man the God man 100 percent God 100 percent Man And God loves us but the Sin we have God hates it because it separates us from him So Jesus Christ went to the cross ✝️ He who knew no Sin became Sin for us and was crucified on a tree and shed he's blood dieing for our Sins every single one it is finished was the last words Jesus said before he Died for the sins of the world Then he was buried and rose again the third day bodily he's alive and a living saviour he is God that can save he is seated right now in heavenly places 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: All we have to do to receive that payment onto our account is believe he did it for us that he payed for all our sins and we get forgiveness of all our sin past present And future he payed for them all. Which means When we Trust in him and believe we cannot go to hell for our sins Because we have no sins to to pay for. It's by Grace something we don't deserve not any works of any kind. God gets all the glory and no created Man will be boosting before God saying he earned heaven by he's works the bible is clear on this my friend. God is the saviour not us We are not co saviour we either believe or we don't there is too types of People unbelievers in Sin death or believers in Christ Life eternal. We can not save ourselves by our works to earn eternal life and be Justified before a holy God. Its by Grace its a Gift according to the scriptures we are Justified. Romans 3:24 King James Version 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: we deserve hell but thank God he made a way and its Good news he is doing the saving not us faith is not a work praise the Lord It is a one moment in time to trust In Christ alone believe he died for our sins shedding he's blood as the substitute for us on the cross and was buried showing he was dead and Resurrection showing the payment is complete to the world on the third day. Alone put your faith in Him. in God as saviour a living saviour Be Justified by the Blood of Christ hes death for our sins. God gave us grace something we don't deserve he took the death we deserve. And we get the righteousness of God by faith onto our account and all Sins removed a complete transaction saved from eternal death and receive Christ eternal life all by the Grace of God And then we can know we are going to heaven praise The Lord And we can never lose eternal Life once we have Trusted in Christ alone and believe in what he did for us on the cross. And we can know right now in time we have eternal life and no sin or bad work.Can ever change that. The life is eternal not temporary life this is the true God of the bible its salvation not probation. 1 John 5:13 King James Version 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. Ephesians 1:13 King James Version 13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, John 10:28 King James Version 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. Trust in Christ Jesus to save you and believe in the Gospel and receive the gift of eternal life I urge whomsoever reads this message. And I pray Father that there heart Mind hears it and turns to God in faith alone to save them In Jesus Christ name Amen. 🙏

Wow - I am in a flight pattern for C-130’s for practice drops between Alabama, USA AND Rome, GA,USA. I see these beautiful planes regularly! YES I SAID BEAUTIFUL! They may not be fancy and new , but they have a beauty of their own and they are the workhorse of the USA!

@@jodyhaney6321 yes they are beautiful. I'm a retired Air Force Aircrew member on EC-130's .I spent 10 years flying . I was part of a AIRBORNE BATTLESTAFF as a Weapons Controller. When I was flying we were Aircraft Controllers. Search and Rescue , Resupply, Air Refueling, Forward Air. Controllers, and Tactical Air Patrols. Those are some of who I worked with.

Thank you.

The airport here is also a fire plane base. He always got excited when the Air National Guard would bring their C-130s in for backup/mutual assistance.

The Royal Thai Air Force still has a fleet of C-130's flying to this day......these were what the USAF pilots called a '4 Engine Garbage Truck!' for their ability to haul just about anything and everything!.......the 2 Engine version being the C-123

@@irongoatrocky2343 My father, who flew special missions in Thailand, would second your comment. He flew planes full of lettuce to forward encampments. Even planes full of sand for sand bags. The one thing he didn't like was flying planes full of body bags. And one note: the C-130 was made by Lockheed, the C-123 was made by Fairchild.

Loved this..! My father flew them as well. He was also an instrument flight instructor beginning with the B-26 Marauder.

A while back I flew my Citabria from Anchorage to Oregon. Stopped in Spokane and picked up my brother. It was CAVU and no wind so I dropped down inside the gorge and was having a blast. Unfortunately I scared the crap out of my brother!

Hi Bill great story there, thanks for sharing it. There are two reasons why this isn't a canyon. Firstly this is in the UK where we don't use the term canyon. A canyon is called a gorge here. Second, what you see isn't a gorge created by river erosion, this is an upland glaciated landscape and the terrain you see is 'U' shaped and caused by glacial erosion during the last ice age around 12,000- years ago. We simply call this a valley. Have a good day.

@@benedictearlson9044 I thought that looked like a glacier-carved valley! The house I grew up in near Chicago was on a hill that was actually an end moraine from the last ice age. Today the valley carved by the glacier that created that end moraine is called Lake Michigan. :)

We did the low level thing through the Grand Canyon in a KC-10 on the way back to the coast from refueling F-16s over Northern AZ. It was winter and no tourist flights were up or else we probably wouldn't have gotten clearance. Pretty amazing to fly through the GC in a widebody. I was almost jealous of anyone who got to see it from the ground.

Benedict Stevenson FYI: I looked up the definition of the word canyon. The Oxford Languages Dictionary, located in Oxford, England, definition was, “A deep gorge, typically one with a river flowing through it.” Here is the list of synonyms that were under the definition of canyon; gorge, gully, ravine, valley, glen, gulch, and coulee.

Cheers ☺️ 👌

Wow! one proud Mum

Cool. That must be a very rewarding life!

Amazing indeed. Lockheed has enough orders on the books to keep the production line running for years. It could be the first aircraft to be in continuous production for 100 years.

When I tried to join the air force it was the main thing I wanted to do, to fly a C130. My dad used to refuel them in Little Rock and I remember being shown around them when I was tiny.

@@vanceb1 well honestly for the next 50 years, by the end of 2070 we will have better technology that we won't need planes that big

@@germany456 C-130s aren't that big. C-17s and C-5s are much bigger. There are a lot of cargo aircraft that are smaller than C-130s. What matters is cargo space. That's what makes cargo aircraft as big as they are. Better tech won't make paratroopers smaller.

A C5 can't drop a few pallets of beans bullets and bandages into a small forward base in a valley like that, though.

RAF lower

Thank you for your service.

Thank you for your service

What is the relevance of being a submariner got to do with the video?

@@redskyz483he is just stating that he served, nothing wrong with that. He deserves our respect

Awesome, 10hunterLab! A retired CDN paratrooper here. I love Hercs. Double door mass or the big TV screen bare ass. All good! I know totally what you mean. The Forces are family. Not just a career with benefits! I miss it too. I am farming now, but, we will be back in uniform in our next life. Take care buddy. Airborne!

Could just volunteer. Then I'm sure you'll see military hardware up close.

Imagine the feeling of flying in one of those planes, thru the canyon(s).

@@qwopiretyu EXACTLY!!! Not enough people do. All these “super patriots” on social media never served a day and never will. It has long been my belief that everyone, male and female, should serve at least a couple of years in the branch of their choice straight out of high school. The personal growth alone would benefit them far beyond what they think and I am convinced the country would benefit in immeasurable ways. I know my time in the USAF was by far the best investment of my life. One of my biggest regrets is not serving longer.

@@srcastic8764 I often regret not serving

Like a movie scene 🍿

I had a bald eagle swoop down next to me one time in a Cessna 152 and it cut right in front of me. I was just glad it didn't get into my prop.

And they've been learning/doing this for decades! Terrain Flying has been in military practice for a long time!

@@irongoatrocky2343 low level formations are extremely fun aswell! love to fly on bush trips with my bros on MSFS. Cant wait to buy a vr headset and try VTOLVR

And the view from the C-130 cockpit is amazing. Big windows.

Who or what did you think would be flying them? Wow, there are some special people out there

@@bountyhuntermk2520 Wasn't really thinking much when I made the comment lol Edit: Didn't expect it to blow up as much as it did 😂

Of all the planes I few on in 20 years in the Air Force, that plane eluded me every time LOL. Never got to fly on it.

21 years USAF, Flew numerous times in C-130s. I even got to fly with a National Guard flight dropping cargo once! Slept on Cargo on flights to Germany! Flew to Nellis AFB NV 8 times. Great career. Two tours in South Korea, Kunsan and Chongju.

I always like to think the C-130 is the Millennium Falcon - a freighter that is highly maneuverable and carry big guns.

@@earlarthur9378 ... Fantastic airplane. Flew on them many times. Noisy as hell. You can barely speak onboard. And... they drip condensation from tubing overhead on you. But... I loved them.

Spent 6 yrs in the "Herc". I was Special Ops Low Level qualified. What a hoot to fly an aircraft like that low leve/

Oh wow! thanks for watching 👍

Yup I live in the blue ridge mountains southern VA and have seen them fly over my cabin on the river it will make the entire thing shake if they are close enough. Also see f35 practicing in these hills weekly.

Always keep your head up whenever these things are over you. They tend to fall out the sky quite a bit.

Cool 👌

One of my favorite civilian airplanes is the Lockheed L-188C.

I love the way these suddenly lift off of the runway and float upwards. The C-130 is a graceful plane.

My father was machining engine parts at Rolls Royce Hillington during the war and he still had enough human awareness to later contemplate how German civilians must have felt being under one of those approaching masses of doom.

That's why they called HARRIS..."Bomber Harris".....who was a crypto J.

They'd be at 20,000 ft ....

@@gc2696 not when they were taking off....

@@alanhearne6733 There would not be a thousand of them taking off simultaneously.

Has he tried landing one on an aircraft carrier? I am sure the footage of that happening was compulsory viewing in Flight Training School. 😊

@@lukewise1227 No, haha, that hasn’t been done since that amazing footage all have seen - just too large for the Carrier. He has landed on the Aircraft Carriers and other ships countless times in the Knighthawk Helicopter though.

@@sarahnbrla.882 You must be very proud. Back in the day I dreamed of being a pilot with the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), but was unsuccessful. Just out of high school I was not world-wise enough to continue my studies and try again. I was accepted as an aircraft engineer however I chose to pursue a career in law enforcement instead. Now here I am as an old retired copper with head rattles the same as Vets due to all the things I saw and did, particularly in Forensics, I am sorry I did not pursue my Air Force career. I could be retired and working on war-birds all over the world instead. It was my 'sliding door' moment in life. Give your son my best regards and wish him a safe and happy career. (I envy him). 😉🇦🇺👍

Like the 747

If you're climbing or hiking on mountains like Tryfan in the Ogwen valley it's not an unusual sight to see planes below you. Always gave me a thrill but unfortunately old age and arthritis caused by a mis-spent youth and beyond now makes the staircase a challenge especially when mother nature is urgently calling.

It's my home ❤️ wouldn't live anywhere else 👌

Its was a great moment 👌

Did they end up flying the ski equipped birds or the regular version? I marshaled in one of their planes into Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn during a fly-in in 2007. Flew on them a couple of times too. Got coined by the Aeromed Evac squadron. Good unit up in Scotia.

They flew a thank you flight in 2020 and then in 2021 they flew an execution flight pushing those same first responders who refused the vaccine out of the aircraft mid flight. True story.

Hello Skipper _ I was a Range Control shift supervisor at Ft.Bragg, 1976 thru 77; can you say if the birds were cleared into the R5311 (restricted area, Ft.Bragg) airspace, and if Personnel/HE drop was involved? Seems I remember this or similar.

@@onewayup5 Yes ! the drop was on Sicily or Holland drop zone as i recall. Also it was all heavy equipment and CDS. The first 22 planes had the heavy equip.

@@elwynrpiratelife55 can't wait!

I was TDY at Lakenheath in 1978. Loved it the short time I was there. Flew over from the states on a C130. They weren't meant for comfort.

@@firemedic5100 If they aren't packed with cargo or troops you can stretch out and get comfortable. 😉

Speaking from experience, turboprops are a little easier on the ears than jet engines. One is a big fan and the other is essentially a rocket motor with extra steps

@@ebinecksdee9872 And these are off power in this situation. Not quite flight idle, but close. Kind of a low power glide. Tune in when they're in full takeoff power mode.

@@IanCaine4728 Did you hear/see the F-35 and F/A-18s takeoff around noon a week or so ago? I got outside just in time to see the F-35 break formation and go vertical, I’m not too sure the F/A-18 pilots were expecting it because they just continued at the same rate of climb like nothing happened.
