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.

ETMN (Nordholz) 20.01.2009 and 21.01.

Post by flieger28 »

Today the Antonov 124 left Nordholz early in the morning. I tried to make some pictures.
Later on this morning the A310 10+25 visited Nordholz for 2 approches.
And a refueling above ETMN i noticed and also made a picture.

On my blog i have also a Video showing the An-124 Take-Off.

I wonder what the receiving plane is....707TCA maybe? (Or should I call that a CT-49 nowadays?)

Yeap, would have thought the same... but do not recall that it is capable of in flight refueling.

Yeap, must be! This is a good practice for a E-3 pilot...

Btw. this shot makes very clear that a KC-135 isn't quite the same a Boeing 707 airframe as often mistakenly it is reffered to be.

Exactly. The 707 is quite a bit longer and the trailing edge of the wing roots seem to have a different shape.

PS by the way flieger28, nice take-off shot of the A310.

I think i should have given the thread a different subject. Maybe Antonovs in ETMN :)
So i post the pictures here...
Again a 124 visited Nordholz. This time UR-82029 of Antonov Design Bureau.
It "swallowed" the Lynx 83+11 and 83+18.
Also today, but in the evening, Lufthansa Flight Training made a few approches with a PA-42.
Strange was that the plane was not in LH colours.
