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.

LILN Venegono - Varese Airshow/Finmeccanica Senior Day

Post by Dysko »

Yesterday, Finmeccanica organized a small airshow.
The airshow was held on Venegono airport, shared between Aermacchi (which builds its trainers there) and the local flying club.
There should have been almost all the flying machines built by Finmeccanica companies (Aermacchi, AgustaWestland and Alenia Aeronautica), unfortunately the Eurofighter Typhoon and the Bell-Agusta BA609 tilt rotor were not present due to various problems.
The weather was also very bad, so some photos may be dark/grainy/blurry.

The show was opened by a motor paragliders team, the "Team Paramotoristi Audaci":

Then 2 Cessna C172s of Aeroclub Varese, the local flying club, made some passes:

The spectacular performance of the C-27J Spartan, unfortunately when it performed rolls it was too far, so no photos of a cargo plane flying inverted :(
