I've go to say people love to see them and in the valley we get plane spotters that climb the side of the hill side and are at eye level with the crew almost within touching distance as it's only a few hundred meters wide where they exit.after the accident I didn't look at them for a while but we get them so often you become used to it.Its the friggin Hercules that skim the top of the tractor when your concentrating on something else that makes you poop a little

Was staying in SE holland near theGerman border and they were constantly scrambling from the base there. I swear we could tell the colour of the pilots eyes at times. Was pretty cool to watch.
