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.

Norvenich Photocall 27-6-2008

Post by Flanker27 »

Today I went to Nörvenich to see the special c/s of Boelcke's 50th Anniversary. In the morning the special Tonka flew a couple of approaches with the wings in different positions, wheels in or out (it had to land eventually :wink: ). At exactly one I was on base to make some nice shots, if it weren't for new clouds coming in. It got better later, but then we were off already to Geilenkirchen. Enjoy these first ones, comments are welcome and more on request of course!

1. First a nice pass with swept wings.
Image
2. Dirty approach
Image
3. On base: Boelcke's Blue Lightning
Image
4. 2 more Tornados were setup, too bad they were celebrating because all kind of stuff was hanging on them.
Image
5. Right side!
Image
6. They arranged some steps to shoot this sonderlackierung.
Image
7. From another angle (and stairs).
Image
8. Closeup of Herr Boelcke
Image
9. From the rear
Image
10. Other side (backlight).
Image
11. Someone wanted to shoot swept wings at Leeuwarden?
Image
12. Still celebrating.
Image
13. Who chased the cat in here?
Image
14. It wasn't the USAF because they landed at ETNG.
Image
15. Oh it was a crouching tiger....
