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.

I was there on holiday, so i went to Laage for a day.
Unfortunately no EF 2000, due to technical problems with the ejection seat, all were grounded.
But still a nice day!

If you google its serial RA-26226 (visible on its wings) you can find more info: it's an Open Skies An-30 of the Russian Air Force.

... and if you take a close(r) look at the fuselage, you can see the "Open Skies" titles on the fuselage, mid-section, just below the white upper part. Nice catch, even at that altitude!

Always going forward... still can't find reverse!
