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.

Impressive line up. Nice shots. Did you manage to to catch the MC-27J in the static? (especially it's 30mm gun??)

Anyone else also noticed that the "gimbal-hung sensor" on that cropduster hangs rather close to the tarmac on that sensor pod :?:

Okay, the glass panel of that camera may have to stay clear of the propwash, but the camera itself is now rather low-slung.
A drawback when operating the Air Tractor AT-802 Block 1/2 from rough uneven airstrips I suppose... :?

Nice shots indeed. Those are known planes but with different roundles. Especially the Hawk has my attention.
And the Americans made an exeption for this show? Or wil they visit others as well in 2014?

It's not only the civil boys who have money to spend. Don't forget that there are still many military contracts to be earned for US companies in that region. And that's not the case here in Europe (or somewhere else for that matter).

Correct:

Omega Air Refueling ‏@OmegaTanker 4 november
Going to the Dubai Air Show this month? So is the Omega DC-10 tanker! We'll be traveling with Boeing's F/A-18
