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.

I was there too. There were a lot of restrictions. Only wrecks, old stuff and active Tornados could be photographed. All Tornados in maintenance and so on, couldn't be photographed. What the big point was, a pilot told us in the briefing that we could shoot anywhere, provided requested in advance. So it was a little disappointing for all those people who wanted to shoot Tornados.

Thanks Joan, that's what I mean with 'boring circumstances'.
