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.

RAF Cottesmore - 01032011

Post by MartinNeedham »

A charity Photocall was held at RAF Cottesmore yesterday to allow photographers a last chance to shoot the four special schemed aircraft painted for the type's retirement from RAF service in order to raise funds for Combat Stress.

Hi Martin,

Some nice shots you made of a beautiful jet. Too bad they axed them. It's a true shame.

Cheers,
Iwan
