Forum rules
This 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. |

Leuchin' good 2010.. - RAF Leuchars Airshow 2010
Award for the worst pun please..?
Sorry for the delay, was getting that error message before.
This year I decided to go outside as there wasn't much in static, and if there was, we all know the situation on it.. However I wanted to nail a few of the flying items (SAAB 105, SAAB J29 Tunnan, Sabre and Norwegian Vampire aswell as the F3s) so elected to go outside..
Thanks to those I saw for the company, was a great day!

You've got some great Photoshopped photos there. It proves that spotting and creative photography can go hand in hand.

Re: Leuchin' good 2010.. - RAF Leuchars Airshow 2010
Better late than never. Here a few pictures from the Leuchars Airshow at Saturday September 11th, 2010.
This Leuchars Airshow was for me an remarkable event due to the fact that it was the farewell of the Tornado F3 which will be replaced somewhere this spring by the Typhoon. It was also (one of) the last public appearances of the Harrier GR-9.
Last but not least one comment about the weather. Saturday morning rain poured down in such vast amounts that one of the parking lots could no be used. I was lucky as I had pre-booked on base parking. Most surprisingly the weather improved tremendously
at the end of the morning and the whole afternoon/evening it was perfect weather.
