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.

Nancy-Ochey - LFSO 18 June 2011

Post by maurits »

Good morning,

Last Saturday around 16.20hrs we made a brief stop at Nancy-Ochey. We were very lucky to catch 3 returning Mirage 2000Ds from their Djibouti(BA188) detachment. Despite the dark weather- heavy rain showers were very close to the airbase- we were able to take some landing shots off the three EC03.011''Corse'' marked deux-milles.

We drove around the base and in the west side shelter area we could take a sneaky shot of this Mirage 2000D 648/133-XT with EC03.003mks

Aircraft in BA188 markings are indeed rare, but I really don't see the added value of posting that much unsharp pictures of them. For me a LOG only will fulfill the job as well.
