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.

Hi all,

Here are three photos made from the tower. Not the best quality, but a nice moment to remember.

Thanks for the positive comments! Overview of the flightline was taken from the PH-RPR police Bolkow. Couldn't take any more decent pictures because that thing likes to shake a lot and the circuits were pretty tight :P. Will see if I have some more views from the air tonight

I only got pics from inside Soesterberg Tower, but it doesn't bother me at all! It was really great to be there when most of the visitors were arriving that day, including DEADLY!

"...Soesterberg Tower, DEADLY is four mile initial runway 27 for two..."

@Kiwi: I like your pic from the flightline!

Found two more from up high that I found worthy of this topic:

1. A place where a lot of us have spent many hours and have seen some great aircraft (my first spotting experience with the 21st SOS MH-53M for example!)
Image

2. A wider overview of the flightline and the operational side of Soesterberg AB

I like your pics, Kiwi!

Lucky you, to fly with a chopper out of Soesterberg AB!
To be honest: it's my last wish for EHSB at this moment > a take off and landing at Soesterberg AB. :D

my humble selection of this memorial day. I would like the Vermaas family for their hospitality @ the tower plus Paul and Dick for arranging our access.
