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. |

RAF Lakenheath (EGUL)
When I was down in England in the Summer I did some spotting at Lakenheath, four days worth in the end! The first two days had a lot of action and pretty good weather, the last two days had pretty good action and great weather.

I can knock up a few more if you want, I ended up taking about 2,000 overall in the four days.

Re: RAF Lakenheath (EGUL)
Great shots! I also like the subtle Herc climbing out of Mildenhall in the far distance on pic # 3
LN and the Hall *is* only a 6 hour drive away. Too bad there's a tunnel in between ($$$$)

Re: RAF Lakenheath (EGUL)
1 question. Where did you take picture number 17? I probably know the spot at the beginning (where most pictures where taken), but don't know where it's possible to take pictures like this (wheels up already).
Kind regards,
Oscar

Re: RAF Lakenheath (EGUL)
Some great shots
In some picture's i see a eagle with 00 in the tail code. Does this mean the plane is build is the year 2000 ?
If so i did not know there were eagle's of that young age.
Greetings Patrick.
