Last month I visited the FAMEX airshow at Santa Lucia Airbase, Mexico. It is a great way to beef up your collection of Mexican airmed forces helicopters and aircraft. Great thanks to 4Avn and of course to our hosts of the Mexican Air Force, who were very happy to show us their hardware! http://i896....

Great set!

Thanks for sharing!

The ex Torrejon base museum Phantom C.12-19/12-15 is now preserved next to the pole mounted F-86 near the Hornet ramp. Hi Frank, you read 12-15 correctly. Here is photoproof. Pic taken the same morning. http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/lmblok/Diversen/EdA_F-4C_C12-19_12-15_pres2.jpg grtz, L.

Here are some pictures of the other participating airforces. Most dynamic shots were made outside Sakhir airbase during the second day of the show (17 January). To get to the right spot on the other side to avoid backlight might proof to be tricky. The south side and center to the west of Sakhir are...

Hi all! Here is my selection of highlights of the Bahrain International airshow 2014. Finding the right spot during showdays is crucial at Bahrain. Despite the backlight during the entire (dynamic) show, I'm pretty sure we managed to deliver a lot of great shots. Special thanks to Jurgen (4Aviation)...

Definately worth a visit Hans!
Hope to be there in 2015. I never did hunt fanatically for those relics, but Hahnweide proved me wrong.
Maybe now I'm inspired to visit Oshkosh in the coming years....

Great shots Drs. P! Here is my take on two days of fun at the Oldtimer Fliegertreffen Hahnweide 2013. All pics were made on the airfield, most of them on the eastern slope. I have never enjoyed an airshow with all day backlight, but Hahnweide is an exeption: http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/...

When thinking of Colombia, the aviation enthousiast will not automatically associate this country with an air show culture as one will find in some European countries or in North America. Nonetheless, the Colombian aviation industry as well as the Armed Forces found a need to showcase it’s capabilit...

Here are some of my highlights of Anatolian Eagle 2013/2. A very BIG compliment to the Turkish Air Force (THK) for their great effords to accomodate all of us. They went all the way, to get us at the right places with the best light conditions! UAE C-17A: 1225 http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac16...

Hi Hans, Adding Qatar AF pics to a Thailand Tour photothread? An interesting and painfull surprice... :wink: Let's get this thread on topic again... Here are some of my results: http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/lmblok/Thailand%202013/MK4_1151_zpscda2b31c.jpg http://i896.photobucket.com/album...

Great pics Stip, it really paid to go early. During the public days, we had thick clouds and some rain. Here is an impression on how we did during the actual show: http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/ac164/lmblok/China%202012/Zhuhai_PLAAF_H6_40071_cn232405_9984.jpg http://i896.photobucket.com/albums/...

Hi, I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but there is a military museum in Caïro with a small display of mil a/c. You will find it at the Citadel. Here is what I saw on 23 July 2010: Seen at the Cairo Citadel, military museum, on 23 July 2010 were: MiG.21F13 (Fishbed-C) 5908 Su.7B (Fitter-A) 7320 ...

Hoi Patrick Great shots and very interresting aircraft I-TAIF is a FIAT aircraft!? Pieter Hey Stipjes, After checking the internet, the helo we saw at Belgrade this afternoon is indeed reported as a FIAT group toy. In fact, someone suggested you should read the a/c serial I-TIAF backwards.... :lol:...

Looks like everyone is rushing from Schiphol airport to their homes to unload their CF and SD cards on the forum. Can't stay behind... :wink: Congratulations to Jurgen for beating us to it. Not sleeping does pay of... in some way :respect: Although it is still early and I don't know what other great...
