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.

Martinsburg WV ANG MRB C-17 Ride

Two days ago I had another opportunity to fly in a C-17 Globemaster. This time with 167th AW of WV ANG out of Martinsburg airport.
Surreal experience, especially flying in a jumpseat :)

The windows in the C-17 cockpit are huge. I could imagine myself flying that plane and doing a lot of spotting :)
