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.

"Some"... :shock:
Looks like a good spot, though - and I certainly like your 'special compositions'!

Nice pics, looking forward to next month when I will visit MAD for a couple of hours.
Have to be honest, didn't know that EC-JQV was painted in Real Madrid c/s (according Airliners.net already since last September), looks nice!

Wow I´m even seeing airlines which I didn´t even know existed.

Specially like the DC-8

The DC8-73F still wears Cygnus titles.

About the status of the EC-EMX, I am not sure. I saw it going out Friday last, after it had been in place for at least two days.

Short before it came taxiing by some local spotters showed up and told me (presuming I understood them correctly, their English was a good as my Spanish) it was withdrawn from use and on its last flight to some unknown destination where it will be put in storage or maybe even scrapped, though I'm not sure about that last scenario.
