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.

I think you mean Shadow Beech. The Sentinel is no Beech and also quite a bit bigger. ;-)

Last night we get a second change to make some picture of the RAF helicopters. Two AH-64 Apache joint the exercise this time.
The weather was better than tuesday night and there where more spotters at the face.

The C-130's where parked south of rwy 25. It wasn't possible to make some good picture of them.
