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.

USA trip Part V AMARG, Tucson, DM

Post by joan le poole »

I finally found some time to report on our day spend above AMARG and at the fences of Tucson Int. and Davis Monthan. The date was February 6. As said, we had a flight over AMARG at 8 AM. We spend the other part of the morning at Tucson, while we went to Davis Monthan in the afternoon. Around 3 PM we drove back to Tucson to see if we could get some additional Vipers.

1. A surprise at your flight to AMARG

5. A surprise at our flight back to Tucson. Due to low light in the early morning shutterspeed was pretty low, hence the quality.

Williams will be the best part. Is this particular airframe, the 50034 of McGuire, still active? We didn't see it depart again, and as it was at DM, it might be see at AMARG.
