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.

Nice pictures !!! :wink:

The condition of the aircraft look a lot better than the ones at Gatow :shock:

Language is Russian on the plane, so surprised to see that on a LSK fighter (unless this was a Russian one, but now painted in LSK colours)...

My first thought as well... keep it simple I guess :-)

One more thing to say... for all the planes I visit I could freely walk around them and sometimes even get a look inside. Not sure if this would be the case for the Luftwaffe museum at Berlin-Gatow. And the conditions of the planes are really terrible, with exception of Flugwelt (Aviation World) Altenburg-Nobitz. They did a really nice restoration on the MiG-21SPS Fishbed-F and even the Breguet BR-1150 Atlantic is protected well (see landing gear, not sure if this is temporary due winter). They also have a Mil Mi-2 Hoplite (no picture) which is now in restoration.

Cheers,
Matthijs
