Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Thanks! Your grey NH90 should be the swedish HKP14 141054 which is being tested in these days. It´s still an interesting place to visit although the "golden" years seem to be over here as well. A few years ago you could see between 10 and 20 helicopters together outside - nowadays you are lucky if you see more than five new ones.

the grey NH-90's could also be a Belgian NFH version, RN-02 was due to fly this month.

Best way to exclude the country of origin is by looking at their nose, Belgian machines look just like the Dutch versions, the Swedish machines look different with a 'Merlin-style nose radar' :wink:
