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.

Hi,

indeed me too visited Beauvechain today. Thanks to GRAS (Gilze-Rijen Aviation Society). Photo oppurtunities were more limited as I could remenber from the past. We as group of about 25 people had to stay behind the yellow line, parallel to the hangar. This limited photo oppurtunities. We only stayed for about 20 to 30 minutes ... and when flying activity really started we had to go to visit all the W&R, maintenance hangars and museum.

Luckily for us the Marchetti with special markings which was at the end of the flighline and beyond the ranges of our lenses, was pulled close to us :D .

A short impression from myside (many pics already shown so nothing extra to add)

In the afternoon we were welcome at Melsbroek. The ramps were pretty empty and it had become more cloudy. Here one shot of one of the police helo's.

Grtz to Alex, Sven en Oscar. You were good company. To Alex hope everything will turn out OK with your camera.

Edward.
