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. |

Re: Formation topic
OK, let me rephrase: It was denied to be a formation. Local papers inquired at Volkel and Eindhoven PAO what was going on, because the various aircraft one by one gathered, started flying formation, were photographed by a PC-7 and then made one low pass over Veghel and Eindhoven. All this took about 30 minutes, so many people noticed. But both PAO's said nothing special was going on. My reasoning was: If it was legit, they would have just said: "We had a nice formation for the anniversary of our transport-squadron, made some nice air-to-air shots and finished it off with a low-pass over our home-base."
So maybe I should have said: This is not a formation. Didn't mean to step on anyone's toes. BTW, anyone ever seen the air-to-airs, or got them on the ground at Eindhoven? My vantage-point wasn't the best.
