Tanagra Archangel 12 and 13 September 2008
Forum rules
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 pix, Phantom fixer!phantom_phixer wrote:Great photos. Thanks for posting them and thanks for starting this thread.
Oh, BTW... those T-2s were officialy 'off limits'
I only found out that the T-2's (and the F-4 opposite them) were off limits on Saturday morning when I wanted to reshoot them with somewhat better light. I got told off by one of the guards

Part 2....
See if you can spot in the photo below how the elevated shot was taken....
If you look between the rotor blades you'll see an F-16 that was trying to "shoot" down the Apache
My apologies for the frozen rotor blades, I was following the jets and didn't see the helicopters until it was too late, I initially forgot to drop the shutter speed....
....but I remembered in time for the flypast

It was a very nice weekend at Tanagra. Thumbs up to the Greek Air Force for organizing this nice airshow.
My contribution to this topic.
And a question, one of the Danish F-16's had this small camel under the cockpit. Does any one know why??
I hope you like them.
As always comments are always welcome.

Hey Jonas,
great pics.
The blue camel signifies they successfully dropped one of the new GCWs (Guided Camel Weapons)...
Either that or this aircraft has been deployed to Afghanistan. My friends with the RDAF tell me these camels were painted on sometime in the 2002/03 time-frame.
Take your pick
