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.

Testing the Typhoon in Switzerland

Post by Hornet »

Hi everyone,

Some pictures of the last test day of the Typhoon (on evaluation in switzerland for the F-5 Tiger II replacement),
on 27.11.2008 at Meiringen Swiss Air Force base.

Freezing day, the sun doesn't reach the bottom of the valley in winter !
Backlighting, good mood among buddys, frozen feets, runny nozes and snow-covered summits... :mrgreen:

Let's go !

You've got some great shots. What's that thing on the back of the helmet of the pilot in the front seat? (pic. #3)

-EDIT- Can it be the HMSS?
