This Herc was 250ft above the main road below. I took this photo from a carpark on a forestry road. It's all relative.
The civvies in the village below this Herc in the Loop have some fantastical stories about low flying. After going here on busmans holidays over the past 11 years I've become friends with most of them and after many debates at the bar they've just about come to accept the purpose of low flying and the 'Rules' of the LFA .
I still get stories like the one recently from the local undertaker who said he seen a Chinook fly by his window level with him (his house is on the side of a mountain
!!) and he boiled with rage at how much he's pissed off!!!
Somehow I don't think his customers mind
