Yes, I totally agree, I will have a 4k video later! experimenting with a new video camera 😃
Great to see the Atlas finally using a proper beach. Just over two years ago they laid a load of sand beside the runway at RAF/MOD Woodbridge airfield in Suffolk and were doing practice landings there.
Nice one Elwyn! Always the best footage 😎👍

Elwyn R, yes most of my video couldn’t be used because of the banter in the background, so it was only when I made space around me out of earshot that I could get the footage I wanted.
Wow, what a beautiful aircraft. And beautifully captured, thank you Elwyn!

Amazing as always Elwyn. So jealous. I did manage to get there a few years back, crippled myself getting down there as I am disabled and did not realise the walk down the beach was soo far, then the Hercules cancelled so it was all for nought.

Beaches I have been to have this stuff called sand. Not this compacted rock hard mud stuff.
Feel sorry for the sunbathers 🤣
So the non-blustery days can be counted on one hand or two.😉 I hope they paid extra to land on beaches.🙈
