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.

Ambri AFB 30-08-08

Post by Marco »

whilst listening to Zurich Information we heared something nice. A small plane approaching Ambri was remembered a NOTAM. As the ATC was not to sure that the pilot did see this one, she read the NOTAM. In the NOTAM it was said that on Ambri there was heavy paradropping and jet activity in progress.

So we (I) changed our cultural destination in which we 'happen' to pass by Ambri. At first it was slow, 'only' a Skyvan was flying. She was doing this already since a few days.

Then suddenly we were surprised by a low high speed flyby of a Hunter. I think they were visiting the local sponsors. After parking, shaking hands they left again after a very small show.

Here are the pics of this day.
