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.

Something overheated with this hot weather, fuel on the wing from refuelling, fuel en overheated parts, not a good combination is my conclusion...Don't no it just came in or was on the brink of departing.

Good evening,

This type of aircraft (wood and plastic) can catch fire from an overheated brakedisk. This happened before with the same type and location. This kind of damage happens within a blink of a eye, hence the comments of ATC.

The plane will fly again, probably just a new wing.

Written off you mean? A new wing, some cables and a new wheel and good to go it seems.

Okay okay, I did not think you could do a lot to a plane
Then I have it very wrong.

Looks repairable to me to, but it will cost some euro's.

DBR maybe?

Lets look at it more positively: not DBR, but do some BDR and maybe it'll fly again :wink: :D
