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.

Today my dad and I had had a busy day in Amsterdam. We started by visiting the open days of the ROC Amsterdam Airport, after a few hours we departed to the LHS (Aviation Megastore). And last but not least: EHAM!

First, the ROC:
Two german BO-105's

A lot of things are working on the ROC's aircrafts: landing gears, lights, etc:

And @ the Aviation Megastore (will post them too in the W&R phototopic...)

Nice photos Sven. Looks like your NF-5 cockpit shot turned out better then mine shot of it.

Hi Michiel,

Great to see that you've caught the landing gear tests on camera. Lovely actionshots. Love the NF-5's bottom too :D

Had to wait untill my brother finished up his work there so we could all go home. He was the one doing the gear test on the NF-5. And because he wasn't finished with cleaning up I could watch the gear test of the F-104. Very interesting to see.

EDIT: And for the dust-counters, yes I did noticed the dustspot on the T-33 wing.
Cheers, Michel
