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.

Truppenübungsplatz Lehnin

Post by Sjaak »

Just south west of Berlin/Potsdam this German exercise area can be found. It is a vast area containing dummy villages and a train station. Also a dummy airfield is part of the training area. All of the goodies shown below can be located on Google earth. During weekdays and especially during live firing this is a nogo area. In the evenings and during weekends however the large area is freely accessible. Picture were taken last saturday March 28...

Nice pics...
726 and 736... saw them for the first time mid-1990 on Preschen.
Not sure whether I should be sad by how they look nowadays, or be glad that they are still around :?
