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.

Volkel Monday Afternoon 10-09-12 (mil)

Post by henkderidder »

I tried my luck at Volkel. I 've heard they use the "parallelbaan" untill 11 oct. Allways nice for taking pics from. About 14:00 4 F-16's went out for a mission. The Demo-team came in and one totally clean 311sq marked F-16 went up for a trail run. So 7 F-16's and 1 Cougar in a overschoot. Great weather and light. And nice company!
On with the pics:

J-638 in 311sq markings:

I agree John! But it does look like there is a big Bonzo head on the visorcover (??) Not too clear to see.

Thanks for the comments/compliments. @sharpshooter: I think the 4 ship was from 313sq. Two pilots had a tiger on their helmets (J-055 and J-021)

AhA! Thanks for the info Henk. I'm curious to see a close-up. Too far away I guess.

Cheers Peter
