Second pass sorting out all the pix and I ran into this one; gee I will miss those Phantoms !

992 and 945 must have received a new layer of paint recently because they look pretty good compared to other fellows of the 81st !
Nice catch Roel, great shots !

Thanks Chris ! The Goshawk paint/colour scheme is a beauty (in my opinion) ... even nicer on a CO jet, you know like the one with the Tigers banner on the fuselage.

Adding a couple of shots after another pass through the bunch. Not a clean shot (object under left wing of foreground Mirage) but best I have in this category : http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8256/8678180943_fe36d57238_h.jpg None of these Typhoons are crispy clear because the heat wave of the backgro...

The day started with overcast weather with 50 shades of grey (!). But we had hope. The forecast indicated an improvement in the afternoon ... and it was spot on ! By 11.00 it started to clear up. And Spot#2 came out to be perfect for what I came for : spotting the Mirage F1-CR. http://farm9.staticfl...

One of the best series I have seen so far. Well executed and nice angle. Compliments.

I can discern "27" on the runway --> any troubles with security or locals standing at spot#2 ?

Good to see this old beast visiting the lowlands

Looking at the last photo and my local weather, the background makes me dream even more than the foreground ! Great shot anyhow

Thanks for sharing with us. I guess lots of work and pleasure went into it ... and it has become a great collection !

Last flight of the year at Volkel today ! Highly challenging conditions : mist, low light, RW 06 (tougher than RW24 in my opinion). Had to go high in the ISO as you can see. 1. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8504/8287683021_79a088cf93_c.jpg 2. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8062/8288046265_10ac1dc8cb_...

Yes, here they are. Personally I prefer the Tornados to be viewed in medium size and the F-16s in XXL !

Just wanted to thank Scramble to give each of us (especially avid hobbyist like me) a chance to expose our photo, to provide a nice display to the outside ... and an opportunity to be 'noticed' ! I have always been dreaming about the latest ... and guess what ? : --> the dream has come true --> two...
