Landing at Guantanamo.-


A C-130 from Pope AFB, NC crew lands at a US Naval Airfield in Guantanamo Bay Cuba in September 2010. The footage starts as the Aircraft Commander is on her "Base leg", then on "Final" for the active runway. Note: You can see both U.S. Marine and Cuban Army guard towers in the distance.

The United States assumed territorial control over the southern portion of Guantánamo Bay under the 1903 Cuban-American Treaty, which granted it a perpetual lease of the area. The United States, by virtue of its complete jurisdiction and control, maintains "de facto" sovereignty over this territory, while Cuba retained ultimate sovereignty over the territory.
