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.

Celle 29.06.2015 Bo-105's

Post by Olli J. »

It was time to visit Celle in northern Germany. Here we found nearly all German Heeresflieger Bo-105. We counted 80 of them, 38 are still in service and the rest is stored and are prepared to phased out or for museums. We were told that the Bo-105 will finish the service in the Bundeswehr in the end of next year.

Old? In my teenage spotter days, these birds were new and the Alouettes were the old ones. Nowadays the BO-105 are gone and the Alouettes still fly around... :lol:
