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.

It seems the repair of your 100-400 worked out allright! :D

Nice pictures, Roel!

I like number 1 and number 3 the most.
Best regards/vriendelijke groeten,

It seems Gils has a pretty high kill ratio for 100-400's...... Anyhow, didn't see you Roel. Nice pics

Glad to see 009 back at home. Shame about that badge, perhaps someone at Volkel has time to replace it.
