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.

Niels' pics have much better light, but I want to show the following picture because of the object's unusual approach configuration. :-) It was doing a planned missed approach at the time, and the crew did some technical checks after its go-around. Ten minutes later it landed with its hoses neatly retracted ;-)

'Cobo 32' on approach to runway 21.

That A310 is participating in an AAR exercise called EART2014. This approach was done to go through some procedures.
I was on base today to report on EART2014.

I noticed some noise and dustspots, but am too lazy to clean it up.

An extensive report with background information on the exercise will follow on our website.
