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.
It is an exercise mainly for the Bundespolizeifliegerstaffel. They train to fly and land in the mountains.
They operated from Füssen, and from there they flew into the mountains. And after about 1.5 hour they came back for refuel.
I heard of it during the trip so we rescheduled a bit.
Grz.

Well done, Jan! I always enjoy your reports. A lot of nice helicopters with a scenic background. Polizei BK-117 stands out for me!

regards,

Nice set of pics again Jan. It seems it was a large tour around the Alps. The Finnish borderguard is my favourite
