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.

Donna Nook - RAF Airbus A400M ZM401 - MIL

Post by FlyingmonsterFC »

While up on the east coast of the UK shooting the Grey Seal colony at Donna Nook we were joined by a Airbus A400M on dry flare trials at various heights and speeds. Wearing the Airbus serial A4M016, the aircraft will enter Royal Air Force service as ZM401 and be based out of RAF Brize Norton. Sadly, the weather was grey and dull but it was great to see.

Two images.

Safe to say the Seals were not bothered about the visitor!
