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.

Nice day at Helitown Gilze-Rijen.
It was a cold day but with the sunshine sometimes very nice.
Sines was also spotting at the base so I think we can expect some more nice pics from him here.... :wink:
As you can see on last picture is the sucurity at the base very strong.... :wink:
Enjoy, greetings Richard Konings.

It would be a pity that i have to remove this great set of pictures because they are not in the right language.

Please in English, thanks :lol:

A picture speaks more than a thousand words but yet doesnt have a language :shock: :D

But I agree with the point :D as I do not myself understand a word of Dutch or flamish :?

Slope activity today only kept to two chinooks, two Cougars and birdy. There even passed an IJsvogel/Kingfisher due to the work in progress at the Tucan restaurant/hotel area. Can't blame him...

The Historical flight also went airborne for about a hour or so.

I'd rather depict atmosphere and the 'heat of the moment' making a catchy photo than to reflect the real situation and real colours showing a boring photo.
