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. |

Today I had the honour to be on board of the test flight of KLM's PH-BQD. It was a great experience that I'll never forgot!

Greetingsenzo,
Bert.
No tricks of the eyes, I would say... that REALLY was low! The height above ground given by the radio altimeter is dictated by the location of the altimeter. Undoubtedly, it is located in the fuselage and therefore higher up than the landing gear... judging by the pics, the MLG might have been as low as 40-50cm... not much difference there between a missed approach and a touch and go ! Nice report, everyone !TNCB wrote:Judging the pics it's hard to believe you were over 1m in height, but the pics might play tricks on our eyes, not sure.
