This 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. |

German F-4F's land with their receptable open to vent the fuel lines upon touch down. Normally, F-4's vent the fuel overpressure from the rear of the plane, spraying fuel fumes over the parachute. While at the TLP, a Luftwaffe pilot told me that this was not only bad for the chutes but also bad for the crews handling the chutes so the Luftwaffe changed their procedures to land with the refueling receptable open as an alternatve venting mechanism.Robert wrote:Nice pictures. But I see that they fly with their refueling receptable open..... Not a common sight I believe.
