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.

No doubt boring you all stiff 8)
Some of the action today, Monday 10 August at Wittmund. All shot from the eastern end, most from the embankment. Skyhawk N262WL came back with its target still deployed. Visitors were a JBG 33 Tornado and a JG 73 Eurofighter. On with the show!

Hans.

Wittmund is never boring. Very very nice set. Like the smoking Phantom in the 2nd pic. And that Scooter driver in pic nr 7 was in a hurry to open his dragchute.

Nice set of shots!!

PS: that is not a braking shoot on the A-4, that is the target-banner (not completely retracted) that the F-4F's use to practise their shooting skills.

Best regards,

Walter
