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.

Nellis AFB, last week

Post by Hans Antonissen »

Spent a couple of days at Nellis last week to see and photograph the first Flag of the year. One of the main goals was to shoot some agressors because they have changed a lot of aircraft and since the Eagles wil be leaving soon this might be one of the last chances.Conditions were challanging because of the "unnormal" behavior of ATC. One day they decided to recover 90% of the Flag participants on runway 21 left, never seen that before and it's quite frustrating. Anyway had a descent week, here are some shots. Hope you enjoy them.

Grtz,

Hans
