Forum rules
This 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.
Hi all.
This last week saw "Exercise Daedalus 2010".
The mission to help defend the skies over Davos World Economic Forum .The Eurofighter flew with average mission times of 1 hour and 50 minutes from Zeltweg without centre line tanks. Innsbruck had 6 Pc7s with gun pods detached from Zeltweg.The weather was far from ideal but the sun did shine a couple of times during the Week.
Those photographs are definitely the best pics I ever saw on the internet from Austrian Eurofighters so far! Well done! (But I still consider this specific aircraft as a boring grey and ugly fighter aircraft, sorry for that...)

Wow, that is some fine winterlight you caught there! Thanks for sharing and well done.
To those who have never been to Zeltweg, the eastern approach resembles Gilze-Rijen.
As a fair few will already know
These are taken outside.
The approach is runway 28 which they use most of the time.
A Austrian friend has never seen them taking off to the East (runway10)except i believe the Air Power Airshow.
Landings are great and the ef2000s do taxi to the end of the runway to line up.
However the sun will be a problem later in the Day.
A 3 to 5 step ladder is needed for the optimum taxi shot.(more side on)
The Austrain Air Force has limited flying hours and with the long range sorties these Days, this is eating up the time spent on take offs and landings like the Draken use too.
The EF's on final are great!
