Hi,
Later in the week we also visited H5. When I was here in 2000, the F-5 was the backbone of the advanced flying training. Nowadays, just a handful F-5s remain and are to be sold of to a civil company very shortly. Not published before was the acquisition of a number of Hawks, replacing the F-5. Luckily, the RJAF was willing to fly one of the remaining F-5s for us. A great day out!
1. F-5 on the Tarmac
2. Fly-by
3. Touchdown
4. One of the new (second hand) Hawks
5. As we did not had the best opportunities at El Azraq, a friend arranged some F-16 fly-bys at H5.
6.
7.
8.
9. Backlit, but whatever..

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 truly unique opportunity to see those planes. Very nice shots. Hope to see more in the future.
I always say a boy can learn more at an airport than at any school.
