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.

These 2 aircraft combined for 27 drops on the Valley Fire yesterday. Ramona is also home to an OV-10 spotter/command aircraft, but it was gone by the time I showed up.

I missed by one day N923AU/Tanker 23, a Lockheed P-3A operated by Aerostrike (flew the day before I got the S-2s) and after I left yesterday a Lockheed C-130 (Tanker 131), operated by Coulson landed at Ramona. The base can also handle BAe-146 tankers, but I don't think the runway is long enough for other jet tankers (MD-80s/737/DC10 and of course the 747 Supertanker).
