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. |
Nice try with the shots, unfortunatly the UK-audience really favor their history so indeed all attention goes to the Vulcan instead of the AH-64 (the most spectacular helie demo this year to be seen ) ... Other thing that really kills the spirit is the ban on flares (but this comes with a reason).Thermal wrote:I must say the Apache had the most boring demo ever! No one was watching (maybe the fact that the Vulcan was taxying by and the B-52 was circling in the back had something to do with it)

The Apache manoeuvres were very exciting and unique for a helicopter. A helicopter is, however, much slower than a jet. The demo team tried to please everyone by performing a manoeuvre on either end of the long runway and this took way to much time. They should have centred their show at show centre, in the middle.I must say the Apache had the most boring demo ever!
