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.

Base Aerienne Sion, WEF 24-26 January 2012

Post by REACH111 »

Hi guys,

I went with a friend to Switzerland for the WEF-2012. The flying activities at Sion were from 08:00 till 22:30u.
Sion offers great opportunities for photography. The weather was fine, and we had a lot of fun!
