Forum rules
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.

Here are some helicopters from Germany after all the photos from Leeuwarden. I was lucky
that I was present at the Spottersday at Niederstetten. Weather conditions were good.
The dynamic program began after lunch. In my opinion this was one of the best Airpower
demos which I have ever seen. The whole demo took three hours. The next helicopters flew
during the demo; 11x Huey, 5x Bölkow, 2x CH-53, 1x Tigre, 1x NH-90, 1x EC-135, 1x AS532
and 1x UH-60. The main advantage of the demo was that everything was very close to us.
It was easy to capture some spectacular angles on photo. I hope you like my pictures :)

The answer I got was: "I could tell you, but then I would have to kill you" :lol:
