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.

On the right side of pic 3 the green side is on top, which should be at the bottom and the red triangle is on the left, looks like they used mirrored patches of the left side... or someone pressed a wrong button in lightroom :wink:

On our planes they dont put the red part of the roundel on the right side of the right side (You still follow me?)

They put the Flag on the tail as a real Flag.
So one side(left) is as the flag is in real the other side is the backside of the flag.

The americans do it also this way...

From what I heared is that they painted the flags on the right side wrong at Woensdrecht. That is with the red triangle on the left. This was wrong, so on Leeuwarden they made & applied correct (mirrored flag) stickers over the wrong flags...
The leftside was done correct.
