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.
I hope this was allowed by the Orland organisers, if not, then it's shame to see people flaunting the rules. Because then the access is revoked and they complain. So if you were one of these people, and you weren't allowed to do that, and you're reading this, then get your act together.
Lovely shots though everyone, particularly liking the first image on this page and all the photos of the display F-16! It's some scheme.
Regarding the guys standing on the taxiway: this is pretty close!
I am wondering whether this is what the organisation had in mind...
Whether it is allowed or not, for some reason this is dangerous and normally not what has been considered as 'safe'.
Most likely the crew of the Tornado didn't like this (if they would have noticed it...)
Imagine what could have happened in case they opened the throttle a bit...

I fully agree but found it strange to see our hosts not respond to this, so thats why the "more or less allowed".
