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.

[PICS] Thunder Over Michigan Airshow/Basevisit Whiteman AFB

Post by toppiero »

Hello,

Hereby some pictures of my visits to the Thunder Over Michigan Airshow and Whiteman AFB last July, more will follow.

First of all my visit to the home of the B-2's in Missouri, which is Whiteman AFB. I was lucky to have a (private) basetour at that time. Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to take pictures by myself so some military officers took one.

Below two other pictures of my basetour, but these were taken in october last year, but it gives a good impression of what I've seen that day.
