No sun, no glory. But Sukke had good fun...
So, that's enough chopper for this year....

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. |
Yes i almost left the area. HWIC was expected at 1400 hours. So at 1430 no movements yet and it was much colder and darker the predicted. I totally forgot it was Z time. At the right time I spotted some 50-70 AMB troops waiting in the bushes and saw the orange disk at the LZ. At 1500 Sabres and Knifes on the radio and 4Apaches, 2Chinooks and 1 Cougar came in together. The Apaches stayed at 250Ft and above so not interesting for the pictures. The big boys landed and picked up the troops.... A bit of sunshine would have been nice, it was very dull, grey and dark... but good fun!!! ...WhiskeyDelta wrote:Nice set of photos!!!! You had more luck than I did yesterday with only one Chinook, landing far far away (I was expecting them/it at the same spot you've photographed them today) and just performing a sort of touch and go... Again, really nice set!
