Turkish Delight - NTM 2015

[JonoUK]

Hi All,

Being a fan of special painted jets I thought it would be good to attend this years Nato Tiger Meet in Konya, Turkey. Going into the event I knew attendance was low for a Tiger Meet (No Tornado's, Gripens, Typhoons etc) due to a number of other exercises being close on the calendar and operational commitments. I had hoped the Turkish Air Force might offer some nice surprises, and they did just that. A couple of Phantoms made an appearance just for the event as well as Solo Turk F-16 performances and the Turkish Stars. The hospitality and access they provided was excellent and I hope to attend next years Tiger Meet. Here's a collection of images from the event.

Very nice Images. Your care in framing & in the diversity of shots continues through the PP. stage too. Perfectly tweaked to become some of the best images posted!

Great set , with some different angles and ideas from previous posts.
Number 6 and like the new scheme on the Turkish Stars
