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.

Yes, it's a flame. It had quite a fire going when it was starting its engine, probable due to a rich mixture. It lasted for a couple of seconds until the engine picked-up. Quite spectacular!

Ah, nice pictures over here.

i was waiting for a picture from the PH-MAA, spoke 20 minutes before with the pilot at the hospital in MAastricht after a rescue mission, and he said that he was going to fly over volkel maybe.

Mickey, looking at your shot of PH-MAA we must have stood almost elbow to elbow. Had I known and recognised you, I would have said hello, of course!
