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. |

On the 27th of May i saw another one on Zakinthos (and a elint Beech), so it likes they are here in the neighbourhood at a regular basis.
spotting is just like fishing only less slippery.....

The Herc arrived just after 11am and landed at 24L. Pictured on its way to the military ramp.
Once you click on the pic you will be linked to planepix.nl, click again to view the full blown 1600pix wide pic.
Here's another one taken slightly earlier. Pictures were taken airside.
Cheers
Sjaak
