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.

ZH894 RAF Chinook on a gas n go!

Post by Sullivan »

Another quick blast down to the City Airport, Manchester (also known as Barton Aerodrome) saw ZH894 Royal Air Force Boeing CH-47 Chinook HC2A drop in for a rotors running gas and go. Quite where his partner ended up is unknown as it should have been a pair, but those are the mysteries of military movements.

This one came in from the south from the direction of RAF Leeming, under call sign Ultimate 2, presumably part of Exercise Rising Panther that is currently taking part in the North of the UK.

Unfortunately the light was pretty poor, but we take what we can when its just down the road from your workplace and you delay your lunch to coincide.

Hope you enjoy as always,
