Flying Low

A Hercules flew past this afternoon and I got a pretty good view where I was standing!
Lucky or what. Great great capture against lovely countryside.

Great capture. Isn't that a WWII plane? Or am I mixing it up with something else?

@tristansmum You might be thinking of the spitfire or lancaster (both of which have appeared here actually!), I've looked it up and if I have the right plane, these had their first flight in 1954.

Wow, that brings back bad memories ;-)) I've flown with one of those a few times (when I did my National Service) . It's basically a cargo plane - the interior is just one big cargo bay. No proper seats - you sit on benches facing the sides of the plane. It is cold, noisy and uncomfortable (no pressure cabin).

Gret shot Louise.
