Re: BNN zoekt zsm spotter, voor item over vliegtuigspotten!

Ik zeg niet dat ik mijzelf niet serieus neem, met de middelen, geld en de weinige tijd die ik heb ben ik behoorlijk trots op de grote trips die ik (naast mijn afstuderen) heb gemaakt het afgelopen jaar/ 1,5 jaar. Ik geef alleen aan dat we onzelf even niet zo moeten gaan prijzen en 'elitair' moeten g...

Re: BNN zoekt zsm spotter, voor item over vliegtuigspotten!

Mensen, wat een ontzettende reacties zeg. De vraag die Diederick hier stelt is simpel. Zijn er geïnteresseerden die een 'interview' af willen nemen voor de Klusjesmannen. Geen interesse, reageer dan niet (zo) zou ik zeggen. Ik kan zelf met geweldig veel plezier kijken naar de show, en ja, 't zal gee...

Militair spotten op Son San Juan (palma de mallorca) REQ.

Hallo allemaal, Over een week of 2 vertrek ik met mijn vriending voor een dag of 12 richting Mallorca voor een welverdiende vakantie. De planning is om de toerist uit te gaan hangen op 't eiland (zeker omdat vrouwlief niet de grootste spotfanaat is) maar we willen wel even een kijkje nemen om een uu...

Re: SAR Katwijk 2012

Indeed, unfortunately no helo's from Poland or Belgium, but some nice additions from Holland (including a police AW139, lifeliner, AB412 and Coast Guard Dornier). We spotted two F-16's in the far distance too. Just one for now: http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g372/Bodo_Request/BO11/tweety.jpg Re...

WOW! Stunning shots! Did you take the pics through the canopy, or did you opened it? Some lovely shots! It's time the KNVOL publish a new book, love the A2A shots in the 25 year book. Your photos will fit nicely in between!
