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.

All taken at the "road" between the fields. As you can see, they fly a small circuit so they regularly pass overhead. Great spot when the dummy deck is in use :lol: .

That's an interesting answer Burry :wink:

Hopla, It's a deck (not a real one) to practice (ship) decklandings. In this case the Cougar was preparing for this weeks decklandings o/b LPD Hr.Ms. Rotterdam at the northsea. Yesterday Wildcat 1 & 2 were conducting these landings.

On the first three pics made by Hans you can see the "hangarentrance and lighting facillities"
