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.

Niederrhein airshow 2005 (former RAFG Laarbruch)

Post by Jan »

A former airbase turned into a civil airfield organizes an airshow to draw the atention to attract the big crowd
Ryanair the Irish lowcost airline flies from here to several european destinations.
This former british airbase has a rich history with Tornado,Jaguar,Chinook,Puma,Harrier and that is only recent history.
Very sad that no british fast jets are stationed here anymore but the lagecy remains and to attract the crowd the organized an airshow.
Here are some examples of that day more to be found here .
Have fun watching!

Hey Jan,

It was a nice party back in 2005. Here are some of my pictures. I made them a lot smaller, so the quality is not 100%!!
