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.

Yes, I like them, Nielis. Please check your PM's.

BTW: Please note that the pilots of A-10Cs 81-0980, 81-0965 and 82-0646 are wearing the desert-style flight suite, another proof for a combat deployment.

That dark ellipse painted under the cockpit: is that supposed to be a "fake canopy", a dark spot to mask "gun blast residue", or both? :wink:

Correct. It's done to fool other air or ground based crews as to whether they're looking at the top side or the bottom side of the aircraft while manoeuvring. Canadian CF-188's have the same thing, and a couple of USMC AV-8s carry them too AFAIK.
