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. |

MLM Soesterberg Open Depot days
Today and tomorrow (2nd and 3rd of April) are the Open Depot days of the MLM in Soesterberg. Public has the opportunity to view some stored aircraft on the airbase. Although the shown collection is very limited, I decided to have a look anyway since it was a very nice day.

Yes, that is correct. Only Hangar 7 and the two aprons next to it. One with the parked Atlantic and the other for the busstop and some flying activity of radio controlled choppers.I understand the public only had access to Hangar 7 ?

Re: MLM Soesterberg Open Depot days
Any chance those two can be seen from outside the base? I wasn't able to visit last Sunday, but those two are the only tow aircraft on base I still need (afaik)....Also to be seen (in between other hangars) were:
F-84F P-248
F-104G D-8266
Coordinates for the exact location would be great as well.
Thanks in advance!
