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.

This T-28B was shipped to Germany recently, where it was reassembled again. On the 4th of March, the first flight was made after reassembly.

Here it is seen during the second local flight.

The test pilot departed back home some time later in his own T-28D

Nice ones indeed! Do you know whether N220NA will stay at Merzbrück? And where is the test pilot's T-28 based, any idea?

N220NA is newly based at EDKA indeed, parked in the ‘oldtimerhalle’:
