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.

haha the Viper jocky picking his nose.
In the fisrt shot he goes in with his left hand and in the second shot he tries it with his right.
Left fingers were probably full.

Priceless :D

really we are wondering the same.... We think (note.... only think!) they are waiting the SW detached in Middle east to come back together in the USA...

There are now a lot of upgraded AV machines and also the SP are no more on loan.

sorry can't help you more than this.
