Are the Falklands still under military alert??....As fighter jets were escorting you to the base......great vid...hope you have more footage....Prince Andrew flew helicopters there during the war.....

[TheRossTube]

Yep it's an operational military theatre. As for the escorting, it's the only airspace in the world that the RAF can practice intercepts so every flight that comes down has an intercept. As for more footage, there is more, but I'm gonna keep that all to myself as I think one video is enough :)

1. Were you allowed to pat the penguins?

2. How come you got to fly around with all the military people?

3. What's the accommodation like?

4. What do you think about independnce for the Falklands?

[TheRossTube]

1. No. they were wild and in a conservation area.

2. I was down there with a military organisation

3. Very good on base.

4. I don't think they'll get Independance, nor do the islanders want it. Without us they couldn't stand up to Argentina alone and they're so vehemently British and proud of it.

What are the main attractions there?

[TheRossTube]

sosososo much! The wildlife, the history, the people. All are so amazing and if you get the chance in the Military then there's so many other things available for you.

When is Argentina going to hand back all the lands of Argentina that they stole and killed from the native people who owned them in South America. The Spanish/ Argentineans wiped them out, or perhaps also America should give its land back to the Indians, Australia to the aborigines etc. Britain was there first and for the longest (without displacing anyone). Learn some history before commenting. The only thing keeping Argentina poor is their government, that and the lack of innovation

[TheRossTube]

we don't have to hand anything over to Argentina, and we never will.

@TheRossTube

So why didn't you explained to the Chinese than that people in Hong Kong wanted to remain under the crown?!

Which they actually did.

It is totally unimportant if those two thousand people down there want to be under whom sovereignty. They are on Argentine territory. You are just keeping it as a strategic point and lately as an oil field. Everything else is bullshit! And of course you knew that first.

@SanchoMalverde8765

Pricey? Costly? THEY'RE USING AKS! Fucking soviet weapons!

One plane from the UK can take them down.

And don't forget who they're next to, that big bad ally with 11 aircraft carriers.

[charliebrownface]

@SanchoMalverde8765 you dont have the manpower or equipment to do anything, now hush

[bramman99]

@SanchoMalverde8765 Try another war we'l kick your ass just like last time fuck face!!

[SanchoMalverde8765]

If the argentinians wants to take the Islands,they need to take a whole different strathe.like attack and retrieve,attack and retrieve on and off,and force the war to the mainland,the brits will be fuck ,the englishs don't have the meanings to afford a pricey and costly war

[SanchoMalverde8765]

I say fuck Brits they have became the americans ass kissers

[leonardoblangini]

@Warhead3000 What is Great Britain? Adam & Eve???? The owners of this world?

[nellamanodestra]

@Warhead3000

You are right what you say about my country, but your own contry has it's own very deep issues, the difference between our countries is that we keep changing and learing, identifying, and learning to work together, something your country is stagnant on, because it has been cemented in fear and selfishness, and those attributes are following the way of mammoths.

[nellamanodestra]

@Warhead3000 If you knew argentine history you would also know that the Virreynato del rio de la Plata, you would know that all the aboriginal people killed, where those who killed themselves, most of the aboriginals reamain today albeit reduced in numbers due to the harsh spanish administration, go check out yourself: write indigenous peoples in Argentina, go don't believe me!
