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.

Dutch Helis in Germany

Post by Mathy22 »

From 29. September to 10. October a large contingent of several Dutch helicopters operate from the former USAFE base Zweibrücken (now a small civilian airport) for an exercice. In total there are 5 AH-64, 3 CH-47 and 3 AS 532 Cougar. The exercise is addad by two German Army Bo 105. The helicopters flying several missions from here mainly CSAR in the nearby Polygone Range and the Baumholder shooting area. Weather was not so good until now, so sunny shots were hard to get.

Great shots indeed!! They may not be that sunny, yet they do shine! Well done.

I'd rather depict atmosphere and the 'heat of the moment' making a catchy photo than to reflect the real situation and real colours showing a boring photo.
