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: Wittmund superbase
Hi...
We had a Wittmund basevisit yesterday with Koninklijke Vereniging "Onze Luchtmacht".
A great disappointment, not only because there was no flying, due to the "Ash Cloud" from Iceland and the fact that ALL German F-4's are grounded, due to a ejection seat problem, discovered during a routine control last week, but we also were not allowed to use our photo equipment.
So the only thing we had was an old movie about JG71, explanation of a debriefing, a lunch and a visit to a hangar with two F-4's.
The people that organised the trip are not to blame fot this disappointment because they can't help the Ash Cloud and we were already on base when we were told that it was not allowed to take pictures.
Furthermore, ALL Turkish F-16's and French Mirage 2000's were placed in closed shelters and not visible.
Too bad, it's been a long day for almost nothing...
Grtz.
