Helicopter Heaven

 I have always been fascinated by helicopters and we regularly see them flying up the dale.

  

The military on practise manoeuvres are difficult to snap as they move so fast.

Its great to watch them as they fly fast and low up the dale.

In remote areas it is easier to check  the electricity poles from the air.

The checks are carried out every year.

On Saturday evening Chris & James took part in The March of the Tractors when hundreds of tractors left Newby Hall and proceeded by road to Ripon market place where they were greeted by the hundreds of spectators.
