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.

Basevisit Edwards

Post by Tomcat01 »

After spending a busy day at Fallon we had an interesting visit at Edwards. Flying activity was pretty low but since it's a testbase this was kind of normal according to our guide. We saw pretty much the entire base except for some restricted areas. Here are some of the results. A full report will soon be online at http://supercruise.nl/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Hope you enjoy them.

Grtz,


Hans

Here are some more from Edwards, they have an enormous amount of preserved/stored aircraft really worthwile. The red/white aircraft have almost gone, they only have a few F-16´s left flying in those colors most of them have the standard paintjob. We were lucky to see the only one parked on the ramp fly. The only fighteraircraft you will find overhere nowadays are a few Raptors and plenty of F-16´s.

Ohh yes, we are spending millions on that piece of junk :roll: .
