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.

Anyone happen to know whether the U-2 still has a "retirement date" :?: There was one back in 2006, but it may have been that some people finally "saw reason".

Anyway, glad to see U-2s can still find Fairford. Would love to see them at RIAT 2011 though as it has been some time since this event was last blessed with the presence of one of these "spooky gliders"... :wink:

Nice! "331" was decorated with "Hoorah" titles and whiskers on the nose overnight... Happen to have pics of that too?

Thank you.

Sadly not, as I had to be at work, which was a shame.
Thanks for the comments all.
