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.

Frysian Day 2: German Air Force Base Wittmund 17.04.2013

Post by Tigerspoon »

After we've visited Leeuwarden for Frysian Flag on Tuesday, we've decided to visit Wittmund to catch some of the old Ladies, again. We were quite lucky with a lot of local flying activites. In total ten different Jet's within 7hours.

Phantoms: 38+33, 38+48, 38+64, 38+53, 38+28
Skýhawks: N262WL, N268WL, N432FS, N437FS
Eufi: 30+66

I'd like to show you some of my shots. (more to follow if you like)

Nice report, Marcel, but according to your log there were TEN (not NINE) jets flying that day (presumed you count the ex(?)-JaboG 31 Eurofighter as tenth jet.

And I also noted 38+64 (with a yellow/golden comete painted in the fuselage) flying as part of the QRA "Rotte".

Looks like it was a typo: corrected 38+62 to 38+64!! Anything else? :wink:
