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.

Normally i would never post a picture like this, due to lack of quality, but in this ocasion it´s kind of interesting. This is taken during a high speed pass, check the left rocket rail, Tom, Andras and i were pretty surprised about this one, cause it looks like it´s bended down...........we have no explenation for this.....

This should be the picture you´re talking about, right Tom? problem here is, that it´s the Belgium F-16, en not the Turkish one, like in my other picture.....Besides that, it´s the left wing, while the Turkish pic is on the right wing.....

By the way buddy, i should thank YOU, for the lovely three days, i really enjoyed it with you and Andras!

I do not believe that both of the F16 has the same problem...

Hhhhmmm, might be, on the other hand, i can imagine that it will disturb the aerodynamics in a deamatic way. If i look at the the rocket rail on the right wing, it seems straight as it should be..........very strange.

Could it be the wing flexing because of high G maneuvering???

Very nice shots Joost!
And about the smoke pots, I think its just an illusion because of the flaps and slats:
In this shot they all look a bit wacky

Here is my take on the Saturday.As you can see this set is focused on Flares, Vapor, Afterburners and an occasional Mig-29....
I hope you enjoy!

There is nothing wrong with the wingtip, it's flexing indeed, sometimes it just flexes more than other times, in this case due to the highspeed "wingtip load". Both tips have different flexmoments, just check an inside cockpit video to see how
much they experience torsion... A/c angle and speed can create optical "illusions" :)
