Slovenia and the South of France
A mixed bag of photo’s taken from a glorious week of sunshine in Southern Europe. The French Army show at Le Luc, with a visit to Marseille Airport to see if anything interesting was around , finished of with a couple of days in Slovenia to visit the air base at Cerklje ob Krki and the chopper detachment at Ljubljana airport . Lots of choppers for those that like that kind of thing, but plenty of other stuff thrown in too to mix it up a bit......
Thanks for looking;
Kevin

Re: Slovenia and the South of France
A stunning collection of images, great variety too!
Great to see that Nord Noratlas is still flying too. I did wonder what had happened to it. Remember it gave a cracking display at Coventry Air Day 2003.

Re: Slovenia and the South of France
The first one looks a2a. Great!
And all of the others are great too!
Sharp lens, sharp eyes
Re: Slovenia and the South of France
Great variety and light. Would love some more of the Noratlas. Less fond of the long crops and black borders.

Re: Slovenia and the South of France
Very nice indeed, the opening shot and the 1st Eurocopter Tigre are the ones I like the most!
Re: Slovenia and the South of France
Great set, the PC-9 is jaw dropping! Nice catch with the Mexican chopper as well.
Re: Slovenia and the South of France
Great set but if I have to choose one...the first shot of the NH-90 for sure! Great light...great chopper...and perfect shot
