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.

Good evening all,

I spent my summer holiday in the UK for 10 days, Originally I was bound for BRU but it got cancelled
so I went along with Ierland1 to join here on a 10 day UK spotting trip.

This will be Part 1 from still a lot to come...

In our holiday we visited the following airports:

London gatwick (visited on 03/08,10/08 & 12/08)
London heathrow (visited on 04/08 & 11/08)
London stansted
London luton
Brize-Norton


we visited LGW,LHR multiple times so some more shots from those still to come...
