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.

Finally got some sleep,
anyway, I wanted to be at oceana for the friday night show,
but my flight got devirted to albany NY, we had to get some extra fuel,
because of the strong headwinds above the atlantic,
and it was really bad weather at washington dulles.

Had to drive 3+ hour to my hotel near oceana, and we were already late so I could not make it :evil:
Was around 11 pm at the hotel.
The next day it was pooring down, temperature was good, 27 Celcius.
And the clouds were so low, that the aircraft weren't allowed to fly (FAA rules)
Of course they were extra carefull since the crashes in the U.S lately.

so i'd made some pics of the arriving aircraft, and some static
