Forum rules
This 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. |

Nice picture Niels!
Here are some of mine:
'Bartok 902' thrustreversing at runway 04:
Traditional with first visits: C-17A 080001/01 being 'christened' by the local firedepartment:
A study of the nose while it was taxiing onto the apron
French Alpha Jet 'FAF 6414' pulling up after a low approach while the C-17 sits at the concrete of apron East
Two Hungarian aircraft in one picture: a Wizzair Airbus, and the NATO C-17
A study of the front fuselage
A gathering of press and aircraftspotters at apron East while a French Alpha Jet is completing its approach at runway 04.
Regards,
Stephan

A nice first visit but I have to admit (unfortunally) that it looks very USAF to me.... Papa AFB...

Ernesto you're wrong, it should be Strategic Airlift Capability (bit of a meaningless name IMHO).SquAdmin wrote:What does "SAC" stand for?
