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.

Monte Real - Romanian Vipers!

Post by ehusmann »

Well... still Portugues, but in full Romanian camouflage outfit. Only the serial is still Portuguese. Both were parked on the flightline during the Montel Real open house. A third was visible in a hangar, but no picture possible.

Also some real Portuguese still:

And even a Belgian:

And some older ones...

That's gotta hurt for some.
Seeing some of your prized jet fighters in the static just before they leave the country.
Hardhitting cutbacks I suppose...

That is not a camoscheme actually worn during the operational days of FAP A-7's, but I sure would have loved to see them in that 3-color scheme!!

Edit: I correct myself: I think they did fly in this 3-color scheme, but in the pic one of the greens has sunburnt into dark brownish :-)

Nice set of pics!
