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.

Swiss bliss at AIR14 (Updated)

Post by Macc »

Found some cheap return flights to Geneva from Copenhagen for £40 so I decided it would stupid not to take advantage of the deal and experience the first weekend of the Swiss Air Force's 100th anniversary show. Had a great weekend with excellent company, the first day was much better weather wise and because we didn't really know the programme very well there were so many surprises with the Solar Impulse thrown in towards the end. Sunday was a bit grim although it was good to finally see Ramex Delta. The show itself was so relaxed, very busy too. The food was also very good and priced not much differently to UK air shows although the quality was much nicer!

In no order!
