Photo opportunity, Ferrybridge power station, 28th July 2019

Ferryhridge power station is blowing up a cooling tower on the 28th July. Might be worth scoping out a good vantage point for a rare chance to film a cooling tower being brought down.

Looks spot on.

Are we ok to use your drone for the close ups Chris?

I thought we’d send the inspire closest, most stable in the blast I’d have thought

Or his new baby
When does the red camera come Mick?

WTF

Oooh, my roster says It’s my day off on the 28th. Fingers crossed for good weather

To add to his arsenal of gear

Bet there’s a Notam that day within a mile or two

Drone there is about 1400m away, over private land (that we have owners permission to be on).

I think we might be safe, just need to source breakfast or brunch for the hungry one

I thought Chris might have a spare “Red” kicking about.
After buying the Matrice 600 Pro I can’t afford a camera for it now. WTF

Fingers crossed.
Let’s hope so

Anyone got a camping stove for the eggs n bacon for little Mickdd

If not he won’t come …and that’s a promise
