What happened so far...
Did you know that Wiltshire is the largest or second largest area for agriculture in the UK?
The farmer takes an entry fee for visiting this circle. He will compensate his loss since this is one of the most popular formations this year.
Camera is recording.
We could mount the camera here on the wing to film Monique.
We would need the GoPro for that.
The only problem is to convince the others to get ready and bring us the camera.
I think it would make no sense if only one of them comes here give us the stuff and drive back again.
All of them should come here or no one at all.
Robert: "Yeah, I think it might be a time problem. They will need at least half an hour to drive here."
Probably we are already in the air by then.
Hello?! Frank:"Good morning! Are you awake already?" Yeah, we are just heaving breakfast.
Frank:"Listen, we need the GoPro, now!" Allright, we'll come. See you later.
The Croppies Episode VII 'A view from above.'
Around 30 minutes ago Frank called and said that he really needs the GoPro.
Now we are on the way even without visiting the bathroom first.
We got lost on the way and found ourselves on the motorway just like the day before yesterday.
So, we rush like hell to get a 2nd camera onboard the plane.
One shall be mounted on the wing and one in the cockpit. I Wonder how we'll do this.
We'll keep an entire airfield busy. They all delayed their flights after 12 o'clock just for us.
Frank:"Matze?!" Mathias:"Frank!? Oh, go left here! Oh well, as you noticed we just picked the wrong way."
We'll be late by probably 9 minutes.
Frank:"Are you using the navigation system?" Mathias:"Uhu..." Frank:" What's it saying?"
Mathias:"25 minutes from now"
Robert:" How is it going?" Frank:" They are here in around 25 minutes."
Frank: "They must be here in 2 minutes." Robert:"Maybe we'll make it, maybe we don't."
Mathias:" 200 metres and then turn right."
There's Frank!
Frank:"Yer one minute late. They are just taking off! But drive, maybe they'll see you and wait. I doubt it though."
One minute...one minute... why this wasn't possible? Just a single minute.
Two hundred meters in the air.
Robert:"I made some nice shots where you can see the other plane flying into the frame and the crop circle in the background."
Robert:"Let's have a look at it." Frank:" Have you seen the green car? They chased you at the airfield."
Robert:" Green car?" Frank:"The GoPro." Robert:"No."
Frank:"It was just standing next to you while you were still on the ground."
Robert:" I haven't seen anything." Frank:" Yeah, it wasn't even one minute late."
Robert:"... Oh, well... let's have a look at the footage." Frank:"Allright."
We are heading for the Silent Circle. Monique wants to give her pictures of the crop circle to Charles.
It is destroyed by now. If she would have gone into the air 30 minutes earlier she would have seen it unharmed.
I think it's interesting that her cameras failed as soon as she was over the new crop circle.
The farmer just erased it. Nevertheless she got most of it on camera.
It's strange that her cameras failed as soon as she was directly over that one circlle though.
We heard about that before. That camera equipment etc. has problems in some crop circle formations.
We have never experienced that before and we use very good equipment.
I think we need to research why this happened to Monique.
We are at the Silent Circle now and I bet we can find out more here.
Robert:"I was expecting that I'll get sick, afraid or anything..." Frank:" And it just didn't happened"
Robert:" Everything turned out to be normal. What I am interested in is the moment when Monique's camera failed. I wonder if our camera failed too."
We could go there and see if our mobile phones and cameras are working at the formation.
Mario:"That means we'll go there. Because I want..." Frank:"That your chopper goes down?"
Mario:" No. To see a crop circle which leads to unawnsered questions."
Frank:" There is no crop circle anymore. It has been destroyed."
Maybe because they still want to use the wheat before it gets useless after dozens of people took a walk on it day after day.
Frank:" The fact that the farmer erased the circle is probably a sign that he doesn't want anyone making trouble in there."
Frank:" Do you drive with rubber boots?" Robert:"Yes!" Frank:"That works?"
Robert:"Pretty well actually. These are indeed some nice rubber boots."
I mean who knows where we will stop next?
Robert:"You'll keep your eyes open allright?" Frank:" What for?"
Robert:"Guess what!" Frank:"Flying cows?" Robert:"Damn you're right. Flying cows."
Frank:"You went up yet?"
Can you get closer? "Down here?"
There is a car coming.
I just talked to the farmer who just passed. He thinks this is crap, vandalism, nonsense.
We are not allowed to go on the field. We can take some pictures from above though since I told him we will be gone in 30 minutes.
He just doesn't want any more people being attracted.
He noticed it immediately in the morning at 7 o'clock and sent someone to cut it down before it gets to much attention.
He said he is here since 1981 and that knows about the crop circles in the area since the mid 80's.
I asked him if he ever found any trails and also told him about a neighbor that never saw anything.
The farmer replied that he never saw someone in the fields but he found shoe laces and footsteps a few years ago and so on.
Robert:"It's obvious for him that this is vandalism." Frank:"From aliens..."
There are so many tourists. Just think about how many people are coming here from America for example just to examine what some people did to his field.
He claims he is the only farmer that doesn't get anything out of it but a financial loss.
He couldn't awnser how much it would be since he had extra costs by cutting it down etc.
Also the ghosts of the crop circles from last year are causing damage too.
Frank:"That's what he said..." Robert:"Yeah."
Can you turn to the right? To the other field? Mario:" That's the ghost. Shall I zoom in?"
There is a trash problem and the ground won't remain the same.
I also asked him if there is any farmer who isn't effected by it. He said:"No! Everyone had it at least once."
Oh well, you'll have to live with it.
Frank:"Didn't we had to turn right here?" Robert:"No.. Oh wait you're right."
Robert:" So what you are trying to say is that they examined over 200 crop circles and found scientific anomalies?"
Frank:" No. They examined over 200 crop circles, measured them etc. and of course they haven't found anomalies in every circle."
Nevertheless they found anomalies in enough circles to proof that there is a real phenomenon.
I mean it doesn't matter if you discovered one, two or three dozens real crop circles. It still doesn't give the awnser to what that is.
What is that?
To be continued...
