Forum rules
This 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.
Had a rare and kinda "last minute" opportunity the other day. Weather didnt quite play ball but nice anyway to see and feel the VC-10 up close and personal: XR808

I was in the cockpit of XV102 at the RNLAF Days in 2010 and it kind of smelled like a toilet in there
Hahaha very funny I know what you mean and I have been in many very smelly cockpits (particularly back in the days of Tupolevs and Ilyushins). This VC-10 flight deck had a smell of roses though, perhaps because there was a nice female f/o on board
