Forum rules
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.

Live bombs dropped during operational missions. In this case, Libya... One of the other Typhoons also has mission markings, but a lot more than this one. Additionally, participating Dutch F-16 J-063 still sports the MiG-silhouette below the cockpit as a reminder of the Serbian MiG29 it shot down during the conflict in Yugoslavia.
