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.

Unbelievable how litle is left of the base... only a few shelter and hangars, and of course, the tower...

Hi guys,

Lovely shots!

@Ron, strange to see a desolate base when in the early years a lot of EC-130s and A-10s were based.
In 1999 we did a self made tour at Wildenrath- driving on the western side of the runway a part of the shelter area and squadron buildings which were not broken up. On the eastside a big railway test track was build and used bij Siemens.. Yes times are changing.... Only the memory remains to these good spotting locations!

Greetz,

Maurits
kind regards,

Maurits
