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.

Chinese Relics; Shanghai Guangzhou and Beijing

Some pictures made in China recently:

Shanghai aviation enthousiast park, nice little museum, easy accesible by subway and the entrance is free.
For good pictures better go in the morning when the backlight isn't so horrible

29-01-12 Datangshan, near Beijing, Amazing place, they probably have everything that has ever flown in China, and not just one example but 2 or 10 or 20!
Some are restored, some look like they landed 30 years ago and never looked back. It's huge and you can easily spend an entire day here.

A small selection:

Curtiss Commandoes

Li-2
