Hi, spent my lunchtime near Lauwerzijl where the red barets cleared a farm of hostilities...
The troops flew in with two Chinooks after the farm area was cleared by two Apaches.
This is one scenario of Exercise Falcon Stoter which ends this week.
I drove towards the attacking Apaches and found the farm, when i pulled over i was asked to move my car because the chinooks where inbound right now and i was in their glidepath!
I was just in time to witness the landing and assault.

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. |

Well worth having your lunch in the car if this is what you get.
