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.

Wittmund 50 years JG 71"R" - 05./06.06.2009

Hi gents,

as many others have already posted some pictures here, I had time to work on my images during the week
also...here are the results.

Luckily we all had the opportunity to "shoot" our images during the spottersday of 37+03 last week.
The weather was always changing between sunny and cloudy, so we had always to deal with different settings.
A special goes to go to JG 71"R" and all others who made at least our day a succesfull day, especially the 3 tow-truck driver which had a lot of work to tow 11 Phantoms on too the Rwy for a nice line-up!!!
My personal highlights were the last flying Bréguet Atlantic SIGINT with a nicely adorned tail, and off course
the Hungarian MiG-29UB.
As "normaly" no flying display is allowed in Germany since Ramstein, we all enjoyed the "solo" of the Spanish Hornets or not:-) before they land.... what a show guys!
On Saturday we had then the familyday also, when we had all day long a blue sky with nice whity clouds too - what a great backdrop for pictures.

Hope you like my shots, as always C & C are more as welcome.

Cheers,
Mick
