I don't do civil myself (with a few exceptions) but even without mil stuff, I thought it was a highly enjoyable series! Well captured!

I'm not seeing anything?

Canon EF mount is gewoon Canon EF mount. Ik heb nog nooit gehoord dat dat niet met elkaar zou gaan werken. Pak een oude EF 80-200mm f/2.8L uit 1990 en die gaat ook gewoon nog werken. Wat wel zo is dat oudere Sigma lenzen bijvoorbeeld niet altijd goed met nieuwere Canon bodies over weg kunnen - en me...

I could be wrong, since it's a long long time since I've seen a Mi-2 in the air, but I believe they could be used to deliver smoke screens by pouring oil into the engine system/exhaust?

Isn't it ironic how the German media goes out of its way to stress the point that the Torando's are only providing recce and buddy-buddy refueling but, God forbid, are not actually dropping any weapons?

Last Saterday, the China Lake Airshow was visited. The following was noted. Security was very tight, spotters were closely followed by both OSI and FBI. Hopefully someone can help fill in the gaps. Static 90-0755 HO F-16CM 56th FW/314th FS Question regarding the Holloman F-16, does anyone know if a...

That's a pretty sweet photo even if you weren't rushing by in a 737!

(As all helicopters are ZK-Hxx, they only need to wear their last 2 digits when operating domestically.) Interesting bit of information. Of course not many "Kiwi" choppers go overseas... :wink: It gets even more interesting. If it's an unique type that can be identified by its appearance alone, it ...

Wellington's Life Flight is a charity providing emergency air services with the Kawasaki BK-117 B-2 and also operates a Jetstream 32. On Sunday 19/03, Life Flight had its annual open day, which featured displays from other emergency services such as Wellington Free Ambulance, NZ Police, the NZ Coast...

Fingers, toes and ears crossed!!!!!

The F-35 is of course the latest in fighter and stealth technology ... still, that F-16A looks so much more advanced to me? The F-35 looks like a flying brick, it even makes a Phantom appear graceful. When the 35's first arrived and the 16 squadrons moving to Holloman it was dead, seems like every w...

Very nice, and very lucky with that Tracker!! Weren't they all withdrawn from service by 31 December 2016?

What lens(es) and focal lengths were you using for these shots? They make me want to pack my bag and book a ticket to Taipei right now!

Still remember waiting a long time at Lakenheath in 1994 for these beauties to come in....



Last time they ever came to Europe before they retired I think?

The retirement of Air New Zealand's B767-300ER fleet was already announced August last year, see also: http://www.aviationwa.org.au/2016/08/23/air-new-zealand-to-retire-boeing-767s-in-march-2017/ Yesterday I noticed a single B767-300ER at Auckland Airport, on the Air NZ Engineering Services platform...
