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.

Hello everybody,

Today was a nice day at Gilze.
Although there weren't as many movements as I hoped for, still some nice pictures could be made. Additionally, it was great meeting some old spotting-friends and some new ones!

Here are some results:

No. 5 is great indeed. Where you a bit too late to catch the Bo on the slopes?

No, they just left Gilze at 1 o'clock to their homebase, the shots were made on the normal spottersplace along the old Langenbergseweg.
The slopes have never been used by other military airforces, and why should they? Almost all other countries got real hills and mountains to practise on.
