Mach Loop 2023 Compilation. I Wonder Which Is Your Favourite Pass?
So I ask you? Why Not Watch it, I'm sure you'll enjoy it, if you don't, let me know in the comments why you didn't enjoy it.
You can't beat seeing Pilots and their Aircraft low level training around the low fly structure known as the Mach Loop.
I was lucky enough in 2023, to capture F-35A, F-35B, A400M, Apache, Chinook, CV-22 Osprey, sadly the last flight of the RAF Hercules through the Mach Loop, came through as a 3 ship of C-130J, of course I managed to see quiet a few F-15E Strike Eagle, It was awesome to see the RAF Eurofighter Typhoon through there too, I must not forget the awesome sight of the RCAF F/A-18 Hornets, of course I got to see a lot of the local training aircraft too, and I briefly got to see a Dassault Rafale.
Sit back and enjoy my 2023 aviation compilation.
It's been a tough few months for me and the children, so it's time to spend some more quality time with them. Hopefully you'll enjoy my 2023 aviation compilation I've put together from some of the aircraft I managed to video and photograph throughout 2023.
Hopefully more of the same in 2024.

That would be incorrect. They have time to look at KZfaq videos, being ex Military at a blurred out face level, if U understand what l mean. We would get people trying to film us on operations an after everything died down we would ask the person if he had any good footage to send it to us. An we got 3 different videos of us doing certain things. Of course our faces are covered but we knew who was who. An our unit really enjoyed seeing ourselves, an reliving the Op. So l can virtually guarantee that they would Definitely like to see there flying through the Mach Loop. Especially in reference to Oww l could of done that a bit cleaner, or that was a bit lazy on the pull, that's a pilot term. So they would Definitely like to look at the footage.

3:18 and The Hurcules is my top pic. Perhaps not the top one for everyone, but as I ridden in one a couple of times and it was a piece of history, it gets my vote. One that isn't included, which would be a top pic, was the back seat giving you the Hawaiian wave. I'm not sure if he was one of those with the stuffed toy or not. Wasn't there a longer one with you in the sights of the helicopter? But asked to pic one, then that's my choice. Thank you for all you do for the channel. Being a hiker in the Peak District, I know how you feel each time you hike up to these elevations. So thank you for everything you do to bring this awesome footage to us and Merry Christmas to you and yours.🤶☃️🎄🎅

Thanks so much Chris, The Hercules photos I'll cherish, There wasn't many people who captured the 3 of them like I managed, quiet a few had 2 Hercules in the frame, but not 3. I took a lot of images this year which are worthy of going on the wall in the house, problem is, I'd have to spend so much money on getting them printed off and framed up. I bet flying around in one of them was special. Thanks so much for taking time out of your day to watch my video content, so glad to have some genuine subscribers, you being one of them. Hopefully I pay a few visits there next year to bring more content to the channel. Have a Merry Christmas from the Children and Myself.
