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. |

[MIL] Volkel EHVK 26-01-2012 last flight (final update)
Today the dutch airforce said goodbye to another F16 pilot. Weather was very poor with low cloudbase and rain. I hope the shots are still acceptable despite the weather:

Thanks, I like the last one too.
Stratofreighter: I shoot prime lenses most of the time. The sharpness of them is hard to beat, as you can tell by the very sharp heat blur

Love the lost one also... Although this ain't the F-16 involved with his last flight as J-008 did not have any pylontanks.Nebbor wrote:Thanks, I like the last one too.

Correct Joost and well spotted. This is one of the 3 other planes that flew that afternoon. The aircraft shown is J-001. The J-008 had a centerline tank and used no AB during take-off.
