Great video.
Retracing a route so significant in your country's history must have sent shivers up your spine.

Hi Andre, We were approx 250' agl. I'm not too keen on going lower when taking passengers, but solo I will 'tickle' the water !
The dams are on the Upper Derwent river in Derbyshire, UK.

Wow.... very nice video.....and no annoying music...-:)
What altitude were you at AGL? What a beautiful river and sand banks on each side. We could really see the dam...very impressive .. Thanks for sharing.
