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.

Family Day Gilze-Rijen Airbase/EHGR 27.06.2012

Post by jimmy van drunen »

Today was the family day at Gilze-Rijen Airbase, some static helicopters were present.
Lucky me I was the winner of the contest!!, Flying in the Beaver from the Historical Flight (SKHV)
Vandaag de familiedag van de vliegbasis Gilze-Rijen bijgewoond.
Er stonden wat kisten static en er waren verschillende DHC demo's, erg vermakelijk allemaal.
Als klap op de vuurpijl won ik van de gehele vliegbasis de prijsvraag en mocht ik een 3 kwartier meevliegen in de Beaver van de SKHV, erg leuk allemaal!~
Hier wat plaatjes van de dag.

1. Afgeschreven Cougar, de S-442!

Is one of eight Cougars that are stored/for sale due to budget cuts.
