this is a brilliant picture of a C130 taken in the low flying area in Wales. they would be down below 500ft off the ground and flying down a valley. its an essential part of the special forces pilot training that they should be able to Manoeuvre this 45 tonne aircraft at low level in difficult situations. but they don't have the best job in the world, they would be working hard..........
in my view the loadmasters have the best job in the world, these guys are responsible for loading and unloading of the aircraft. the special forces load masters need to be able to do LCLA (Low Cost Low Altitude) and LAPE (Low Altitude Parachute Extraction) drops which require them to move about the aircraft when its flying like this. they are held in by a strap but on training missions like this they can just sit on the back ramp watching the world go by ........ that's the best job in the world
