This is the only spot at PIK that I hadn't caught the beast from ("the farm") and I knew I'd get some great footage of those wheels. The spray was a brucie bonus!

Those pilots are pretty cool, they sound slick on the radio. Great video!
I agree!
Lovely filming Jim

I remember seeing that Galaxy C5 aircraft and Starlifters at Greenham Common
Surprisingly short distance to point of rotation. Magnificent plane.
It is an extremely capable aircraft!
Great catch, thanks for sharing. 👍👍👍
Thank you too!
Spectacular video Jim. Great job!
Many thanks!
Spectacular. Well done 👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Wet weather gear on Jim ! Bringing home the bacon. Thanks for a good video of the beast.
No rain actually, I was very lucky!
Where did it go and what was it carrying that's what we need to know?
It went to Pease in the USA - we have no idea whats inside these or the C-17s

Probably was, these have been on the go for many many years!
Could have been a C-141 Starlifter. Another USAF high wing four engine cargo plane.

@ now that’s a familiar sounding name I remember as a kid from the 1970,S
👍 👍
Thanks Theo!
@gersVids Sir.
Ah, but why aren’t they flying Bradley’s to Ukraine?
You never know what they contain - they only come to PIK for fuel & crew rest
