Re: Wildenrath smokers from the 19th and 92nd Squadron

thank you Stephan and pipichantal!
I have family not too far from Wildenrath. I really want to visit this site, take the children, and go for a stroll. Besides, its a lovely area, but the last time i've been there was in 1990.

Re: Wildenrath smokers from the 19th and 92nd Squadron

Re: Camera reinigen

Hallo Janos, Jouw verhaal lezende moet ik weer denken aan een torretje wat door mijn zoeker liep. Als ik een foto wilde nemen moest ik wachten tot ie een beetje uit beeld was gelopen. Lastig kon ik het niet noemen, eerder grappig. Het beestje was best groot. Gelukkig zag je hem niet op de foto! Hij ...

Re: AVIANO A day with Falcons

Hi Coldwater,

I enjoyed watching your photo's. It gives a good impression of your visit to Aviano.
The one with the Amraam in front of F16 #526 I really like.
Oke, Maybe you might want to rethink the watermark. but I appreciated your post!

Best regards, Mark

Re: Lynx + crew captured in Libya

The Lynx is kept by Libia as long as Malta does not return the Mirage F1's. I think that is the statement made by Libya. See the link in the post from Malcolm Bezzina.

Re: Lynx + crew captured in Libya - Comments

Malcolm Bezzina pointed a link out in the 'military news' section http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20110311/local/dutch-pm-thanks-malta apparently Libya proposed to trade the 2 Mirage F1 currently in Malta for the dutch crew. Malta refused. Then there is Greece helping the dutch out. A bit ...

Re: DISCUSSIE MIL: Hoe lang blijft onze hobby nog bestaan ?

We hadden het over binnen bereik, en dat is dus niet de USA
Ik vind de USA meer binnen bereik dan Spanje, Griekenland en Turkije (F-84, T-2) begin jaren 80! En spotten op Ramstein was toen ook geen walk-in-the-park.

Re: DISCUSSIE MIL: Hoe lang blijft onze hobby nog bestaan ?

Hoi Iwan, Het aantal oefeningen en open dagen zal ook mee gaan dalen. Daarnaast komt dan ook nog eens dat eenheden van een groter geografisch gebied meedoen, wat de kans dat een oefening dichtbij nederland wordt gehouden nog verder doet afnemen. Na de TLP verplaatsing, en met het horen van de sluiti...

Re: Thracian star 2010 - Graf Ignatievo AFB - Bulgaria

Great pictures. Where you standing on the runway?

But eh, 480th FS? Was it a dream they changed 480th to 22nd, and 22nd is still flying out of Bitburg?

Re: Objectief keuze

Hi Maikel, Hoewel ik zelf geen canon gebruiker meer ben, wil ik je best wat overwegingen geven . (ik ben wel bekend met canon lenzen) Een vaste 400/5.6 is een lens die canon heeft uitgebracht in 1993. Geen IS, dus stilhouden is moeilijk. Snelle sluiterstijd op een toch al langzame lens (5.6) is een ...
