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.

HMS Ocean pre Olympic Exercises on the River Thames, London

Post by MacksAviation »

More for the record than anything else but thought I'd share anyway.

7 Lynx visible on deck today, 3 Army and 4 Navy.

By the looks of things the Navy ones were all from 702 Sqn with one of the Black Cats special marked aircraft embarked as well.

Whilst I was there only one Army Lynx took off but 4 others were crewed up but I had to leave before they left the deck.

Hi Dave,

In a week from now I'll travel to London to drop of my brother at is home. I would like to take some shots of the HMS Ocean in the Thames. Could you please tell me where I can find the ship (coordinates/streetnames/GoogleEarth map)

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,
Sven
