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.

Hello,

Today seen at Bentlage. Bentlage is a "sleepy" helo field but the guards thinking that they working on a nuclear airbase. Next time thy see me they call the "Polizei" and talk to the AIVD. They took a picture of my car. I was there last week too. Meanwhile they asked me about Scramble forum and the ukar and the a.net forum. They all used by me.
Stupid isn't it?

I only got one picture

See ya (not at Bentlage).

Daniel

AFAIK security has always been quite sensitive here. Maybe they are guarding a nuclear base? Keeping some distance often helps, as well as just telling them you're there. Taking photos of flying planes from public roads, you have all rights to do what you do.
Anyway, nice pic of that smoker!

hi Daniel,

Security is getting stronger since the last few years. I was told that it was even sharpened lately when I phoned with somebody one base! You may photograph choppers in the air from outside the fence, but not stand close to the fence...

Can you give me all the serials read please that day in Bentlage (to update my MTHR15 database).
