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.

Last Friday there was a flypast of 4 Cambrai M2000 overhead the surrounding villages. To our surprice we saw 3 special painted mirages flying for the flypast!!. Also around noon 4 local birds recovered from a very long mission (more than 3 hours)

De runway shots zijn waarschijnlijk heel veel mm 600+, de rolbaan platen veel minder : 135mm?
