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.

That was indeed a landing not "on the piano keys" but "BEFORE the keys"... :shock:

Some more clips made that day:

has the Phantom low approach, and
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lE2wML_OFmg features the CH-53G.

I was also very pleasantly surprised by the low approaches by the Dutch Alouette over the hill 8)

OV-10 Bronco G-BZGK wanted to do a touch-and-go, but literally on finals was strictly ordered to do a "low approach" instead (hence the retracting undercarriage over the hill) , otherwise they may have flown that flypast a lot faster than they eventually did... :wink:
