Hi all,
Here just two shots of very cold Ramstein today.
Flying activity was very low, so we didn't stay long here.
Outside temperature: minus 20!!!!!
Best regards, Rob.

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. |

Thanks But, honesty bids me to say that we choose safety over anything else. We drove home early because the winshieldwiperfluids were frozen. Due to that, we had to stop every 20 minutes or so untill we got to Luik/Liege to clean the windshield with snow. If we would have stayed later it would be to dark to drive home safely, considring the frozen windshieldwiperfluids. Anyway, here the planes I managed to photograph:Guy,s you rock.

Nice shots guys, looks pretty cold. My home town has been hit by snow (it's snowing at the moment) so I can have fun sledging.
