Dinorwic Quarry - Wales from FPV perspective on a gloomy day

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Explore the industrial history of Wales in this fantastic first person view (FPV) drone video by AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot fpvshenanigans.  He was able to fly over the Dinorwic Quarry in Gwynedd, which at one point was the world's second-largest slate quarry.  Prior to its closure in 1969, it covered over a square mile (about three square km) and produced over 100k tons of the material annually.  At its peak, the mining operations here employed about 3,000 men.  It's now home to the National Slate Museum.

What's a place! I wasn't lucky with the weather conditions. It was probably the most windy I ever flown my drone, hence you might see some shakes now and then. I will go to this place once again!
