A horse called Mig

THE MoD IS KILLING ME - iReport.com

A sad tale but the ironic name of the horse made me chuckle….

The title 'THE MoD IS KILLING ME' is a tad harsh, I suspect there are many UK service personel around the globe just now with more of a claim on that phrase than a wee lassie riding horses in the Glenns.

A few days ago we filmed a huge HERCULES Transporter flying along the edge of our front garden.
This aircraft was no more than 40 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND. Something the MoD say they never do! The permitted height these immense planes are allowed to fly at is 250 feet.
Don't they know what their pilots are doing or more to the point do they choose to ignore the blatant disregard of the MoD's own rules and regulations!!!
How could any pilot avert disaster in the event of a power failure when flying at this height. If they want to kill themselves by daring to fly so low, then that is up to them. Don't risk taking innocent lives in the process.
