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.

Great gunner Yorick. The Apache guys were very nice indeed. They also noticed me standing at the slopes, a 100 meters away from you but he came to us too. :)
Jim, you number one is absolutely stunning. It was really worth it! Number 7 is a better angle then I have but the grass at my place was very nice to sit on and to take some photographs.
By the way, the Toyota garage was so friendly to blow my engine with compressed air to clean it. :respect:

Here are some of mine. It was a really great day with the DHC guys!

1. One of my personal favorites.

2. This is where to run for, I guaranty!

.
3. Later on we had the dust under control
Image

4. And off we go again.
Image

5. While I was at the slopes, he was not...
Image

6. The s-444, responsible for the dust on/in/under/between my car. The helicopter itself is quiet clean... :shock:
Image

7. Back at RW28, there were some nice manoeuvres too.
Image

8. The light was great today.
Image

9. The last participant of a great day. After his contact ground, the lights went off.

Nice photos guys ! It seems I made the wrong decision by deciding to go to work instead of chasing choppers yesterday.

Well done,

Thanks Nick.
I see you've got luck with the tail light. Nice B/W on number 4. Makes it authentical.
