'Hercules Parachute Drop', watercolour, 59 x 37 cm.
A 3-ship of Hercules C Mk 1 aircraft conducts a parachute drop over Salisbury Plain in the 1980s. The dispatchers can be seen pushing the one-ton loads out of the cargo bay as the aircraft fly in front of the famous Westbury White Horse. I watched a much bigger drop myself from beneath around this time and it was an impressive sight indeed!
The original painting was sold by commission.
