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.

Base visit @ Schleswig-Jagel (GE) during exercise "Jawtex"

Post by gortje »

Last monday (12-05-2014) i was with some friends a full day at the German airbase Schleswig-Jagel to photograph the aircrafts that are participating into the large exercise "Jawtex".
Into the morning we've made photos from the take-off and landing (2 different spots outside of the airbase).

For the afternoon we were invited for a media day but when we were at the entrance the people told us that this media day was at Wednesday (14-05-2014).
After some calls it was possible to drive with our car to some nice spots on the airbase to photograph the aircrafts into the landing, take-off and also the Finnish F-18s into the shelter area.

After this exclusive base visit we were going back to the first spot (outside the airbase) to photograph the aircrafts that came back.
Here we've made some nice taxi shots of the Italian AMXs, Hellenic F-16s, Hungarian Gripens and Finnish F-18s.

I hope you like this photos!!

Chances are you got better photo opportunities by driving yourself instead of being part of a "Media Day"... :wink:
