Forum rules
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.

Hi there...

Again a nice day at the slopes, no Chinook today but we had one Cougar (S-458), two Apaches (Q-16 and Q-24) and an Allouette (A-247).
My first week at the slopes has been a nice one, made some new friends as well!
Here are some pics.

Grtz.

Very nice! The backseater in pic 4 is clearly one of the Apache demo team pilots!

Good to see that you had some more slope-visitors after I left.
Here is my contribution for today with a big thank-you to the Cougar crew.
Happy Easter!

The C-37B today at the visitor platform. Not my best shot (sunshine from the wrong side), but better something than nothing :wink:

Did someone already noticed the bags in the front seat of the A-247? (Well at least I did...) :lol:

Next time I will volunteer for that position... :wink:

Unfortunately I was to late at the Cougar. I've got it against the sun.
For the rest: a great day. Nice pictures come by. Love the Cougar pics!
Jeff, nice pictures but they could use some post processing. I didn't notice you by the way.
Great job on the others too. Hard to place different ones. :)

1. The C37 in the early morning sun. Thanks to Oli for using their "bridge". :toppie:
Image

2. Some actors of today before take off.
Image

3. The Cougar behind went straight to the slopes.
Image

4. Q16 in approach of the left slope.
Image

5. Q24 with different background then I'm used to.
Image

6. The star of today if you ask me. What a pilot he is. I guess the bags are for load balancing.
