GLV5 & 7: Hunting for REDSKINs & GRIZZLYs
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. |

Hi Gentlemen, I'm looking back at 2 great evenings spending time in the sands with you.
Here are a couple of shots from yesterday:
1 Someone is playing hide and seek:
2 Almost on the ground:
3 Aaaw my back...
4 Let's move out of here!

the Great Leader did it again! After the successful out of the area Low Fly expedition we attended the Frank Noort Photo Crew Eat My Dust Expedition held in the Netherlands.
Here are some of my results, with again, a big thank you for the Great Leader for leading the way and providing the course material.
Cheers,

Indeed In the Lake District the van proved it could well be used for shelter. It also survived the steep climb up.Antoine wrote:Some great shots!!

This time the van proved it could also be used within sandy conditions.
Another test was on the list, but unfortunately the Chinook pilots would not take our van as sling load. So our did not turn into a Skyvan Therefore no air to air pictures could be made. Next time we will position the van in the back of a C-130 so air to air pictures could be made
Assume makes an ASS of U and ME.

Antoine,
Out off respect for our Great Leader we (and others) have decided to drive our Great Leader to places of interest, so the answer is yes.

How can someone become a member of his photocrew?
I read that you have to qualify beforehand?

GLV-7 is large indeed, but there are only a few area's which are so sandy like this, must be an easy one

Well done FNPC members!
Sorry GL, I had to skip classes this week as I was sailing at the Frisian Lakes. One day, I hope to successfully complete the course (the first Nikonian in history to do so?). I am currently running candidate to become the primary monopod softball pitcher in FNPC.
Cheers, Rogier

Remco,
could you be so kind to be a littel more specific or do you guy's don't wanne share this info with the others?
That will be a littel strange in my opinion? Because if every body will think like this it will be a way more difficult for everyone.
In google maps the best options in my opinion is - Kootwijkerzand - Stroe - Beekhuizerzand one of those 3?
I hope some of you guys can tell me, and afcourse all other "photograph collegues", where we have the biggest chance to see some low flying aircrafts.
