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.

The alarm clock woke us up at an airport hotel in Narita at 3.30 AM..... At 6 o clock we took off for Chitose, still not knowing if the grounding of the Eagles ended. While landing we saw the hangar doors opened, there was hope. After we picked up the rental car we were in business;

We almost froze our butt off but the results where great. 4 sorties where flown by both squadrons. I could nog process a JCG Beech 300 because my PS4 does not read NEF's.... (I had to borrow Arno's camera for a while because mine got a cold...).

In the evening we left for Tokyo again, the next afternoon we arrived at Schiphol. I really liked the trip, it turned out to be beyond my expectations.... Great thanks to Arno for all our canged of plans and keeping awake...
Carnaval 2017 now and lets see what trip will be plannend after. Do not forget to read Take Off for a full report.
Hope you liked the pics. Japan is a great place to visit!
