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.

in order to compensate the mil trips, now time to go to a civil airshow. Weather conditions are blue sky and 30 degrees celsius.

Good shooting on that hotel roof, isn't it, Marco? Where are you? Dream Palace in Deira?

you have got 15 mins to launch your flights. Ok we will launch 15 flights. As soon as the last demo plane got cleared to land. Everywhere where you could look came Emirates planes from. Basicly all in roling departure. So in about 15mins 15 EK widebodies left the field.

Well, it is on the fuselage, therefore L-15, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hongdu_L-15.

Nice show coverage by the way!

today spend at the show again. Weather was not as great as the past days. Some planes have shadow all over on the pic. The wind was the whole day from the desert (so no clean air was brought to Dubai). The following updates / highlights:
