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.

Dragon Lady 'Kine01'

Post by nellis6 »

With the COVID-19 lockdown in full flow through 2020, it's been a very difficult year as far as photographing military aircraft has been concerned. With things easing up a little I ventured to RAF Fairford to shoot the resident U-2 with the 'Senior Span' Dorsal Pod, ASARS-2 nose and wing-mounted 'Senior Glass' Super Pods.

Kine01 is captured returning to RAF Fairford after another 8+ hour mission, with the Dodge Charger 'chase' car in close proximity. http://www.jetwashaviationphotos.com

At this moment it is there indefinitely. No one actually knows as and when it will end, could even be a permanent detachment
