Hi,
Last friday I was at Istres AB for 50th anniversary of FAS (Forces Aeriennes Strategiques like SAC)
The weather was perfect and there were three special paint scheme aircraft.
There was a little static display.
First of all, the iconic Mirage IVP
Then, I was lucky enough to stay there for the sun down

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. |
