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.

Florennes Airshow Saturday 23-06-12

Post by DJdeRidder »

A couple of my shots taken off-base. In fact, these are the only aircraft I was able to shoot in sunshine.. The participants list was very good, the weather was not bad at all, but the flight planning was terrible! No jet flights before 13:30h. We left at 17:00 because the position of the sun was so bad we couldn't take any photos anymore, and still we managed to miss the Croatian PC-9s, Greek F-16, Italian EF2000, Slovakian MiG-29!! Very disappointing.. :|

Three of mine of the trafficwise worst organised show I ever visited. We were 10 km from the gate at 11:45, and entered the show at 15:15.

First: Very nice shots!
Second: There was/is a spottersday for €40 were you could be in the middle of the the action on Friday and Monday.
Third: If you want all the fighters all in the early afternoon, it could be boring for the other people for what the airshow is meant to be.

Be glad the Belgian Defence gave us the chance to see something if you look what happened in France.

Severe curtailing of events like this. Only French, no foreign visiting aircraft I was told.

[quote="warthog64"]was better weather than today....

It sure was !!

Today, I had problems getting away - with my car - from the wet, wet and muddy parking...

At least I saw the sun when driving home...
