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.

Hi Jonas!

Hit me again, I love it so much :-) Thank you all for the nice comments. Here some more, from another airbase this time. Mafraq, not far from Amman.

If you have seen the pictures before, then it is probably on the Jordanian Orbat from this website. If you have seen them in a magazine I would like to know where!

Mafraq 30-4-2000

This photo could start a whole new topic..."praying crew" rather than "friendly pilots" :D (Maybe the pilot did some horrible flying and the backseater was thankful they'd landed ok :wink: )

Awesome pictures, I especially love the dark Huey in its sandyellow setting :shock:

Best regards,

Stephan

Hi Frank,

Probably saw them on the Orbat or maybe other pictures of the same aircraft. But not as good as these, because these are some of the best shot I ever saw of aircraft.

The colors are super, but also the backgrounds which makes them simply super. :clap:
