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.

Mildenhall 12 July 2018

Post by Theo1 »

Before we went to the RIAT we spent a day at RAF Mildenhall.
During the morning the weather didn't play ball, completely overcast.
At noon there was a lot of Sunshine though.
Movements were good till about 12.30.
During the afternoon we had boring times so we decided to leave at 16.00.
All photo's taken at spot 4 (Scramble site) except the last one. This was taken at Folly road (spot 2 Scramble site).

Nice Theo!
Is the AMC KC-135 a new one for the "bloody 100th"?

Thanks Marco and Rene.

Sorry Rene, but I don’t know if the AMC one is new for the 100th ARW or temporarily on loan.

Regards,

Theo

On site we were told that all three AMC's are to be painted in the 100th's colours, as they were seen with 100th engine covers.
59-1315, 60-0355, 62-3551.
