May I ask how many flying hours, and specifically, low flying hours D4VE 3 LL and 3LLB1G GK have? And why you think YOU are experts’?

Have either of you actually flown at low level? EVER?

Have either of you actually OPERATED at low level?

EVER?

No of course you haven’t.

Yet you KNOW the rules and you know better than those who do it.!

Now, it’s a while since I flew the M. Valley, I know for a fact we didn’t do it at 600 kts. THERERFORE it can’t be 30 miles round trip in 3 minutes.

In fact it’s a case of fly at 420 kts and pulling out and go round again’

Now

If Ginetta does believe me or Dave, then why dont she go and stand at Cad with a stopwatch for a day
Because I live too far away and I am not a ‘spotter’ – sorry I have better things to do with my day.

Secondly, being ex Aircrew I can not stand there and watch people (possibly my ex students) hooning down valleys – once you have been Military Aircrew, then just like racing, you NEVER really leave!
After flicking through this and other aviation/low flying threads, I feel it's time for G15girl to let us all know the where/what/how long of her remarkable career in aviation, thereby giving her authority to (incorrectly) quote low flying regs.

I know from experience, that low flying regulations are adherred to as closely as is possible, but infractions will always happen when the margins are so slim, and they are dealt with in a sensible manner.

Right, lets all go and read UKLFH vol 3 and get together for another round of scintillating argument about rules in 3 hours...

Or we could just look at all the awesome pics of FJs at LL.

More GR4s in bat wing please!

It's not going to be long before a lot more of the training is carried out in newer, harder to access areas - Scotland being one.

Free 'go' in a GR4 for whoever guesses correctly? I say Lossie, 617 Sqn.

Now you're tempting me to put cheesy work snaps up...Although I think I would get more abuse from this crowd than G15girl has! We'll just have to see how trusting a bunch the PH massive is...

You'd get the abuse unless you had the custard in them....
