Earlier this month, Universal Defence and Security Solutions' Co-Chairman Peter Hewitt attended the Hercules Hangar Bash at RAF Brize Norton in his capacity as an Honorary Group Captain in 601 Squadron.
The event marked an emotional and final farewell to a legendary aircraft, a workhorse of the British Royal Air Force (RAF) and one that has been a pillar of defence for the last 57 years - the C-130J Hercules.
The aircraft was sent off into a well-earned retirement in true style with an energetic performance from Bruce Dickinson, lead vocalist of Iron Maiden.
Watch the full tribute to this legendary aircraft here, and watch out for special guest interviews including Sir Ranulph Fiennes, Colonel Blashford-Snell, Chesney Hawkes, Katherine Jenkins, Johnny Mercer MP and Sir Richard Branson.
