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.

Rendez-vous with Hind - a2a

Post by Borygo »

Last week I got a chance to catch Mi-24D from 49. Air Base (former 49. Combat Helicopter Regiment) on its way to Nadarzyce shooting range (and back). Weather did not play ball however pilots did their best to make this meeting remarkable. Here some shots:

Weather did not play ball
With pictures like these the matter of the weather playing ball or not becomes rather irrelevant... :shock:

This is Coffeetablebook-material that warrants some widespread public attention... 8)

I wouldn't count on this. All our Hockeys are involved in Afgan rotation (deployment and training). Perhaps CzAF will give you a hand here;)

Excellent work - and I don't mind the weather at all, it really seems to give the photos more atmosphere.
