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 gents,

nice shost Gio.....!

I was also in Deci during "STAREX 2010" from May 4- 8, 2010 where most of all AMI inventory was flying, and even 15 GAF Tornado IDS/ECR were flying also down there for there anually weapons deployment too. The aim of the exercise was to improve realtions and compare experiences and tactical and operational aspects using the ACMI system.

They flew each day two missions, one in the morning one in the afternoon.The various waves consisted of combined packages from all units.All a/c used the FPR pods developed by a bi-national alliance of German company BGT and Isreal´s MLM......
Luckily the weather was not all the time bad and so we could spent also some sunny moments at the runway and other spots.

Cheers

Mick
