Flight deck take-off footage from a Royal Air Force Vickers VC10 (1312 Flight) aerial refuelling aircraft based at Mount Pleasant Airport (RAF Mount Pleasant) in the Falkland Islands at the start of a sortie to refuel an RAF Lockheed C-130 Hercules tasked with maritime reconnaissance of the waters around South Georgia in the sub-Antarctic.

I worked on the mighty VC10 in the 70's when it was still in its PROPER colours of white over grey. Best aircraft ever built IMHO! They should still be using this design in todays modern aircraft! Rear engine clean wing by far the best configuration and so quiet! Mind you when they ripped out all the insulation and sound proofing to make them into tankers it lost that! RIP VC10. Thank you for all the times we flew together!

I didn't know there was a Navigators station on the RAF VC-10s. I flew jumpseat on the airliner versions a few times and they had Dual DELCO INS systems. Interesting !!!

But why are they flying from the Falklands to Georgia? Are not US refueling assets closer by?
@peixeporco1554
@peixeporco1554 8 лет назад
The flight was to the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia in the South Atlantic. South Georgia is a British dependent territory.
