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.

Hello all,
After I went with GRAS to beauvechain we visited Melsbroek.
First a nice Falcon at Abelag:

We saw a nice C130 standing infront of the hangar from the FAF.
But they towed it inside and we were just to late to catch it :(
here are the shots of Melsbroek :

And when we had to leave the sun came in :

Kind Regards,

Best aircraft of all @ Melsbroek was this A109 of Benin Air Force.
He was waiting for transportation to Sabca for maintenance.
This nice Agusta was seen inside a shed during a basevisit.

More will follow soon...

Arno,

Great catch. Did you happen to note its former identity? (just for confirmation). This one should be ex H32
