    Brilliant! I did Ben Nevis last year ( walking) and I had a paramotor for a couple of years, so I can really appreciate this video. 1st class!

    Awesome! Thanks fo this, great views, great journey & great music. It looks so different from that angle & the only downside is to see the scarring of the paths al of the way up to the summit!

    That was one of the most beautiful videos on this site. I was lucky enough to get some good weather views of Ben Nevis while driving from Edinburgh to Skye during a trip from the States but I could never dream of getting the views you did. Thanks for sharing! Can't wait for your future vids! Sláinte from Boston!

    Well done mate - a beautiful day, fantastic looking and well planned flight and nice piece of video editing.

    @neil9327 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow what a great flight.
    You did better than me - a few years ago I tried flying to the top of Ben Nevis in a powered hang glider, taking off from the same area. But I crashed on takeoff and bent some metal.

    Sometimes when I see you guys droning overhead I wish I had brought my blunderbuss, or better still a giant laser, to bring you down, Icarus-like, over the Carn Mor Dearg Arete.... but.... this is magnificent footage - have to congratulate you and please do more mountains if you get the chance. It also seems to me to be very brave to fly these things, what with sundry crags, winds, technical snags, angry birds and blunderbusses to deal with.

    Stu - that was a brilliant flight. I've never been to UK but I have ancestors buried in the Highlands somewhere !
    I guess you've moved on to better tech now - you're fidgeting with this and that the whole flight. Hope you got some nice pans for the folks to look at.

    • @TheFlyingScotsmanTV
      @TheFlyingScotsmanTV  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      actually what your seeing is just me taking photos - I as madly shooting photos with the SLR the whole flight. you can see those here www.flickr.com/photos/powerlord/albums

    it´s the highest mountain in the UK. The weather seldom allows this sort of flight. What´s special ? well the scenery was amazing!

  • @MIGASHOORAY
    @MIGASHOORAY 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I want you to fly LOWER so we can see the terrain ,foot paths and the like .l climbed Ben Nevis in 1963 as a 20 yo then at 21 yo I moved to Australia , i visited scotland again in 1981 and uk in 2004 not been back since I WILL die in Australia. In the future i,m 74 now so bit late for me to fly now. Great video ,take care.

      +whitey george that was summer flying. Lots of people about. 500 feet rule applies. Once I got up I went higher true, but if you want a look at the paths have a look at my stills - flickr.com/photos/29497408@N00/sets/72157680025360654
