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.

Wow, stunning stuff. Especially the air to air shots.

What's up with the emergency vehicles (security/police cars??) around the Lufthansa 748 in the background of picture 4??

Are there actual spotter heli rides availbale??? Just asking since I'm going to be in LA too in a few weeks.
I always say a boy can learn more at an airport than at any school.

1. One of the tires (nose gear) was damaged during push-back. They replaced it by a new one but the flight left with a delay of at least 3h.
