Hey Folks, Couple of my pics from last Saturday, thankfully the weather was amazing this year, nice blue dark sky, showing of those afterburners & flares. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54012802473_b13325b7b2_k.jpg Flyvevåbnet / Royal Danish Airforce F-16A by , on Flickr https://live.static...

Hi all, Not sure what I was looking for, but I ended up moving the google map towards Fairford, and to my surprise instead of the tranquil /empty base it has shown for the past couple years, when you look at Fairford now it shows the base as it was during RIAT 2024: https://www.google.nl/maps/@51.68...

Zo hey, kleur op een F-35, nice.

Great pics, and jealous of your Spooks, amazing to see them still flying in 2024.

Last time I saw Greek F4`s was when a squadron was deployed to Hopsten, most F-4`s i`ve ever seen in a single day.

Awesome photo`s, wonder if we will ever see a F-35 with a Tiger colour scheme.

Goedemorgen allen, In Augustus ga ik 5 dagen naar de regio Bitburg - Trier en dat wil ik combineren met 1, misschien 2 dagen bezoek aan Spangdahlem, 30 jaar te laat, maar het komt een toch een keer van! Maar als ik informatie probeer te verzamelen over het bezoeken van deze basis, dan lees ik veel o...

Great photo`s.

I really miss the variety in today's air forces, not only in the types being flown, but also in the color schemes. Everything is just too gray for my taste these days.

Onur air,

Ik 1.70m had geen beenruimte, niet "oh wat weinig beenruimte", nee mijn knieën zaten tegen de stoel voor mij aan te tikken. Mijn rugtas kon ik niet tussen mijn benen door naar onder de stoel voor mij schuiven, er was geen ruimte om dit te doen.

My first pic of a Luxembourg Airforce aircraft since I picked up this hobby in 1981.

Very cool!, and i didn`t even know Luxembourg had an Airforce

Numbers our Dutch Royal Air force only can dream of

Actually, seems about right:

Netherlands is about 79 times smaller than India.
India is approximately 3,287,263 sq km, while Netherlands is approximately 41,543 sq km, making Netherlands 1.26% the size of India.

JDAM is a guidance kit that converts unguided bombs, or "dumb bombs", into all-weather precision-guided munitions - wikipedia. On the photo its probably a MK-83 (or maybe 84) with the JDAM parts thrown on it to make it controllable, underneath all the fancy parts its still the basic dumb b...

Love those long nose TR-1/U-2`s (not sure what it is), looks great on that long airframe, and great to see they are still flying.

Last time i saw one they were still using Black Mustangs as the chase cars (sometime in the early 90`s).

Great shots, thanks for the many shots of the Richthofen Livery, looks amazing!.

Awesome shots, my fav base these days (when it comes to liveries).

JASDF never disappoints, great shots!.
