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. |

A short movie from a helicopter who just departed from EHLE. You cannot see the airplane, but you can hear the ATC.

@Jeroentjuh -> Picture looks pretty heavy! I'm glad that the both pilots are okay!

Interesting video. Is this helicopter returning because of the crash (e.g. the runway was out of use for a while)?

I think he did. After a crash the airport is unserviceble for all traffic (except POLICE01 etc). Other traffic made holding patterns above Lelystad and Harderwijk. After about 1½ hour the airport was open again and most of the traffic returned for landing.phkza wrote:Interesting video.

You can see SP-GED in the video, just the moment he faced the helicopter towards the runway. Just before the 'Engine failure'-call. And you can actually SEE the crash when the aircraft is flipped over. Pause the video at 1:08, play it again in full screen, and then repeat to push play-pause button very fast, than you can see it as seperate frames and you can actually see the flip. It happens just in the middle of the row of trees at the end of the runway. That's the best way to see it in this video.
