Talon05 and 10 in Summerside April 9/10 2011. Photo heavy.

Post by Sowald »

This past weekend our airport hosted a military excercise.
Part of this excercise were two Sea Kings.

I do realize that I`m posting a lot off pics of the same chopper, but I still hope you can appreciate them.

Here are some pics.

At the end of the day the choppers were hangered with folded blades and tail.

On April 10th I went to work at 5 AM for some early morning pics.
This day I was also able to take some shots from (vanaf) the old tower.

Are you kidding! Perfect light on great subjects makes for some stunning shots. You can never have too many of those. And thanks for letting us enjoy those Sea Kings while they're still among us...

Rob...

These are all very nice shots, but especially number 10 (maybe better to number your pictures next time, makes it easier for us to comment on the photo's :D ) is stunning!! such nice rotor contrails/vortex on that one!

:toppie: :scramble:
Shoot first, edit later! :-)

Another dying breed; the Sea King. So for sure nice to see some more ´exotic´ examples.
