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.

And I like the new 'sneaky' Beech. By the way, what is going to be the official type designation in the RAF?

Nice pictures!

What is the purpose of these strange King Airs and how many are to be purchased by the RAF and operated by 5 Sqn (alongside the Sentinels?)?

Something like the US Army RC-12s? Did not even know until now that the RAF would receive any of these "Shadows" ...
