Thanks for the comments guys.

‘UNC’ I’m using a Nikon D2X with a Nikon Nikkor 300mm f/2.8.

Andrew,

The following websites should give you all the info. Follow all the guides and go suitably equipped for the hills.

Great shots!

The aircraft all look ‘well used.’ Not surprising considering all of the ongoing commitments in the Middle East.

Any idea what the circle with 7 white dots on, is on the forward upper fuselage of the herc (clearly visible on pic 6&7)?

Once again, great pics, well done,:)

Thorny

Thanks.

It looks like a CRPA antenna.(Controlled Radiation Pattern Antenna).
Design of the antenna was to assist with GPS antijam/interference.

Stunning.

In the 3 years I lived in that area (And didn’t use this forum), I didn’t know there was a viewing position higher than the machines.
Damn.

You probably pass my old house en route, I lived on the A40 near Crickhowell.

Thanks.

I travel into Wales much further north via Welshpool.

Details of where I took the images on Bwlch/Bwlch Exit and Cad East.
