Last weekend was a brilliant ending to summer 2011. We went along to the camp my father is currently based at and got to experience a ride up in the air in a military aircraft.
Apache in action. Image from NATO. I got the chance to sit on the 'gunner point' and hear a brief talk on how and why things operate the way they do. Utterly amazed that none of the buttons have labels but are all of different shapes and sizes.

Yes I would very much like to have my own tennis court and swimming pool! Not that I would use it everyday but still...haha. |

| If only it smelt a little nicer, Agriculture. |

Pilots at the front, both highly amused by my little sister's laughter. |
