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.

I guess that was the moment when we had a TAKE OFF and Landing of a C17 just in between 20sec.

Hello,

I recommend: do not publish pictures that are taken on the ground on the Scramble forum! Keep them by all means private!
Last time I was at Ramstein (31/3), Military Police was not amused with the presence of spotters at all (my friend and me)! A lot of talking around. Because they did not believe me when I told them I was only active with pictures on approach.
German police was helpfull, because I was able to show them that I was really not making pictures on the ground. I visit Ramstein since 1975.
I hope we will not do anything to make it harder to go to Ramstein. And enjoy the superbase! Showing pictures on the ground is not a good idea!
