TLP 2008-05; Friday 17-10-2008

Post by Hornet69 »

Hi all,

just a few images from friday 17-10-2008. The log of that day can be found under the TLP topic "TLP 2008-05 Logs". I had a nice day as my main goal was to capture some of the the spanish Harriers. Even was be able to do that with some sunlight.

Here we go for a short impression. Many of these aircraft already show under different topics (different days).

Cool pictures Edward, the dark clouds and light on the aircraft make it very nice. Did you keep dry feet up there?

Nice pics Hornet69. I like the Greek Vipers, it seems they came directly from the paintshop. They look so clean and crispy.

I hope that in the last week of the course the weather good enough to see the choppers for the CSAR missions. I'm planning to go to Florennes in that week.

Hi.

Yes, although it was muddy this day was a mix of clouds and some sunny spells so my feet kept dry. To take some boots with you cant't hurt.

Grtz,

Edward.

Florennes Friday 17-10

Post by mudmover »

For me it was also TLP time. It was a great day with lots of good photo opportunities. The day started early at Geilenkirchen with this Alabama ANG tanker departing in the morning sunlight


Image

After that, it was on to Florennes where I arrived just in time for the departure of the mission.

Image

Greek F-16

Image

Italian Typhoon

Image

One of the many Spanish Hornets

Image

A British Tornado

Image

French Mirage F.1CR

After a little waiting, it was arrival time:


Image

The Italian Typhoon

Image

The Spanish Hornets in the break

Image

The Spanish Navy Matador

Image

The Aviano F-16 making a precision landing on top of the roof ???

Image

Spanish Hornet coming in with its tailhook extended. It made a barrier landing at the other end of the runway and was later towed to the TLP ramp.

I hope these photo's are a nice reflection of a perfect day of spotting in Belgium.

Grtz.
