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.

Don't know if this fits you guys but If we (pilots) wave, you are also allowed to give a little sign of recognition back to us.

We wave to say hi and show respect to people who show interest in our activities, so don't be afraid to say hi back. From our side it looks a bit stupid if nobody waves back because they are to busy taking pictures or otherwise. Just putting up your hand for a second isn't to difficult is it?

Especially at Q and the more gear spotters have, the less they say hi back is the tendency. Some pilots allready only wave to little children due to this lack of ''respect'' back.

Just a little bit food for thougt if this might concern some people here ;)

I have to addmit that I dint wave back to every one.
But sometimes pilot are just staring at you when your arm is nearly flying out of it's socket.
