Ocean Tiger - Sun, planes and good company!

Post by boff180 »

Evening all,

Way back in June a small band of UKAR Staffers joined the many hundreds of other British avgeeks in an invasion of France.... our objective? BAN LLandivisiau!

A wonderful time was had and here's a few shots from what was a highlight of 2017.

Great set, I do like the composition of the one with the spotters and choppers. :clap:
Thanks for sharing. :up:

Supertop stuff, matey. :worship:

Hard to pick a favourite, and I may be in the minority, but I think the tiger-schemed Tiger looks a bit naff. And how ugly are those tanks?! Rare as hell, though! Glad you finally got one.

Cracking set, the contrast on the last Rafale shot is beautiful, I also love the clarity on the cockpit take off shot and the Tigre's are gorgeous!
