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.

Flying with Polish Hoplites

Hi Guys,
this time more classic topic. I have never presented you our legend - Mi-2 Hoplite. Few weeks ago I had opportunity to catch those nice choppers (from 56 Air Base - former 56 Combat Helicopter Regiment) on their way to Nadarzyce shooting range. Check some examples:

Air-to-Air's of helicopters actually firing their guns and unguided rockets... :shock:
:yourock:

Not to speak of the other photographs, at times just "oozing" the sense of speed with the background scenery whizzing past... 8)
