Forum rules
This 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.
Last week I went to Zagreb to hopefully see some Croatian Fishbeds. And I was quite lucky. On Wednesday 115 did 4 flights during the day. That day I also saw a Mi-171Sh doing several passes over the airport, an AT-802F and a CL-600-2B16. On Thursday 115 did again 4 flights and in the afternoon the QRA came out as well.

Well done indeed!
I presume they were taken from outside the base? Any hassle with security? I am thinking of trying my luck there as well someday soon....
Zagreb was a lucky shot and I saw more then I hoped to see.
The 2nd taxi shot and the landing shots with blue skies were taken from outside the base. No problem with security but, like at many bases, it's better to keep a low profil as much as possible.
All the rest were taken from the viewing terrace of the airport. This has has a nice view with comfortable seats. The only problem are the airlines in front of you.
Keep in mind that almost all the MiG's are at Ukraine for there upgrade. Apparently only three are still at Zagreb. I don't know when they'll be back.
