Dear aviation lovers.
Visited Leeuwarden last thursday 10th april and went around the base this time to catch some different angles and POV's of the aircraft.
Hoping you might enjoy them.
Cheers

Frisian Flag 2014 Report
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. |

Re: Frisian Flag 2014 Report
Great pics, like the POV very much!
I read that dutch F-16's do not completely extend their airbrakes when landing, to prevent ground contact, as seen in pic 16.
In pic 15 the Danish F-16 seems to have his airbrakes fully extended?
I always thought it was standard landing procedure for a F-16 not to fully extend airbrakes? Or do other operators have other restrictions?

Well, that depends whats you're speed is I guess....too much speed is the more air brakes you need.......to land softly;-)
