Funny, the built-in archive box....

Seen this morning on the A12, direction westbound from Oberhausen -> Arnhem, was a Bo105 on a flatbed truck. I think I read D-HHBW but this needs confirmation as I was travelling in the opposite direction. However, D-HHBW was (according to this link: https://www.aircraft24.nl/helicopter/eurocopter/b...

I visited Gioia around 5 years ago I think. Views were quite good from the outside and I was not harassed by police or carabinieri. Activity was quite good but that was also thanks to the RAF that had some Tiffies and Tornados stationed there for the war on Libya. Normally I guess you should see aro...

We spent a family holiday in California the week around new years eve. In between family activities I managed to squeeze in some spotting time. After having celebrated new years eve with friends living near San Diego, I got up early on the first day of the new year (the benefit of suffering quite a ...

Thanks for the checklist Mr Numbercruncher!

Your copyright sucks.

Such great shots and that is all you could come up with? Personally I think the watermark used here is quite a smart and not too intrusive way of protecting ones pictures.

Great series! Another one for the bucket list....

Bas

Nice nightshots!

The band was replaced on the spot

They didn't like the music?

I'd of thought

What does that say about brain cells....?

Sorry, couldn't let that one go. And it's simply a rule on this board to use airfield names so let's just stick to the rules.

Great shots! Nice to read the comment on the Nikon 200-500, I am considering the same switch from the Tamron 150-600 to that lens. Seems like a wise decision.

Wow, you could have given a 'photo heavy' warning in the title . But what a fantastic set! Great variety of planes and angles and you made the most of the sometimes difficult light conditions. The night shots are amazing.

Hi, I happened to be in SoCal myself first week of January. Weather was, for the area, not the best (actually the locals said it was the worst weather in 40 years). It was a family holiday but I managed to escape a few hours for some spotting at San Diego International, North Island (from the wonder...

Very nice report Joost, I like the mix of mil/civ and the choppers and bizzers in your report, we seem to have the same 'focus' (although I skip Robinsons). Just a question, what is so sneaky about the two bizjets at Apple Valley? Both are registered to Classic Rotors Ramona, which is a helicopter m...

Nice! I had my doubts if the AMI had any operational ones left. Visited Sigonella 4.5 years ago and Catania 2.5 years ago but didn't see any active ones at both bases. I also didn't see any of them flying the coast of Italy while on holiday in Italy for at least the last 5 years. Still based at Sigo...
