This afternoon the Seaking did some base training, so I went to have a look at the airfield.
First some approaches:
The crew noticed me and when they started some autorotations, they did the first autorotation with the flare just in front of me, above a field next to the airfield!! Great experience
Always friendly crew
and departing again for the next autorotation
Flaring after another autorotation in great light conditions to see a lot of details on the helicopter
And another one
I hope you like them. Enjoy them while they are still flying, their days are counted unfortunatly...

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. |

Perhaps the crew recognised you as "a well-known Koksijde regular"? It could explain why they gave you this marvellous photo-opportunity, which you used well judging from your photos...The crew noticed me and when they started some autorotations, they did the first autorotation with the flare just in front of me, above a field next to the airfield!! Great experience.
