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.

Qatar Emiri Air Force at Friedrichshafen / FDH

Post by Router »

Hi all,
last week were two C-17A from Qatar at Friedrichshafen airport. The two C-17A have loaded up a mobile hospital and transported it to Doha. Unfortunately the weather was very bad and only one plane start at 16:00. Hope the pictures of the rare guests liked anyway.
