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.

EDLF is situated near Grefrath which is a few kilometers from Venlo.
It's a small airfield with two parallel grass runways,one for gliders and the other one for the rest.
During the summer there is also some parachuting.

Nice indeed! The Yak is not in the EMOOS; is it based here? If so I will drop by somewhere in the near future....
Thanks!

It's not 'Niederhorst', but Niershorst', close to the Dutch border.

That piece that you call something of a stearman is actualy the right engine cover of an aircraft like that white biplane D-EEDW (it's actualy a Stampe acording to this website http://www.aeroweb.de/search/?stype=reg ... 2b7a15dbeb)

if you look at those pictures you see it has the same mouning points, Intake piece and shape...

I was talking about the D-EEDW.... The Kiebitz is based there, there are numerous pictures of it on the web taken at Niershorst, but I am interested in the SV.4.

So it probably IS based here. Then my next question will be: was it a military one? Apparently the c/n is 245; I am hoping it flew with the French AF :wink:
