[MIL] Volkel EHVK 26-01-2012 last flight (final update)

[Nebbor]

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:

Love the lost one!

Love the lost one!

If it's lost, how can you love it?? But i agree, the last one is great. And despite the weather, the results are great!

[Stratofreighter]

Except for the last one all piccies are still rather sharp...

[Nebbor]

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]

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.

And here is the final update:

[keystation]

A one hand landing for the last one

[Bennie]

A one hand landing for the last one

Two hands on a side stick seems very unconvenient
