Okay so this is a lot harder than I anticipated. Thanks everyone for the entries, once again some high quality on show. A few shots that strike on a personal level from airshows such as Draken's Russian Navy Flankers (still the best routine I've ever seen), Ian's Tornado role demo as that brings bac...

I'd like to offer a different perspective on this, not in terms of being a stereotypical enthusiast as seems to be described in this thread but more from stepping back and looking at the bigger picture. So to begin, I'm all for somebody engaging people to become interested in the hobby. His target a...

I think this time I'll go with a two ship theme: Civil/military, any era, in the air or on the ground, but a two ship of the same type. I'll allow a couple of images per person: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50051606222_9a2a7c0efb_h.jpg Ukrainian Air Force | Sukhoi Su-27UBM1 Flanker | 71 Blue ...

Thanks Dan, as you say there were plenty of quality entries in this one.

I'll have a think and post up a new topic a bit later.

Back in 2016 I had a great opportunity to shadow the 493rd for a couple of days at Lakenheath, this is one taken from a night sortie at the RW24 EOR: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50040773613_5399971cc5_h.jpg United States Air Force | McDonnell Douglas F-15C Eagle | 86-0178 (LN) | 493rd Fighte...

This is going to be a hard one to judge for sure, some lovely shots posted so far. Here's my entries: 1. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50020886117_d6d2ee1ada_h.jpg Ejército del Aire | Lockheed P-3M Orion | P3M.12 (22-35) | Grupo 22, Moron Air Base, Spain 2. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...

Some very interesting entries, thanks all.

I think the winner for me is Andy’s Kiwi Huey, with those lighting conditions it must have been incredibly hard shooting.

Shout out to Tommy with the LL Tonka, Pete’s Griffins and Wbirdnut. All of those were close contenders.

Over to you Andy.

So this one might be a little more challenging, we can't all be fair weather photographers :see_no_evil: I'd like to see your best shots in adverse weather, anything goes civil or military: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49259497131_d82679bf4e_o.jpg United States Army | Boeing AH-64E Apache Gua...

Thanks Nick, lot of great entries in this one.

I'll get a new topic up shortly.

Think I'll go with this one. It was a great moment during Anatolian Eagle last year after a good days flying, 111 Filo took us up to their dispersal keen to show off their participating contingent. I think they also let slip they were bringing the pair across for RIAT too: https://live.staticflickr....

Great subject choice, my favourite shooting environment whether it's static shoots or in the air. Again so many contenders in the archives, but it has to be this one from Sanicole a few years ago: https://live.staticflickr.com/647/21833959102_458e636e47_o.jpg Belgian Air Force | Lockheed Martin F-16...

In our town Bellway Homes have just started a new housing estate and all of the builders were there working away. This site hasn’t even got planning permission yet! Madness. Putting the planning issue to one side: Most of a building site is self employed, of which at present are looking at £94 a we...

In 2018 it was my first RIAT so I was over the moon to see the F/A-18, SU-27 or even the A400M. Last year there was still some interesting items which I haven't seen before like the Mig-21, harriers, Osprey and Apache. This year I was hoping that we might see the F-22, MIG-29, SU-22, Hind or A-10 a...

MODs please move this thread if it's in the wrong section or delete if I'm breaking any rules. Please see below an opportunity for anybody who is interested: During October, there will be a small group of us heading Stateside to the West Cost on a trip taking in a couple of shows and bases. We've be...

Thanks all, it was certainly a memorable experience.

Late 2017 saw the US Army undertake their first deployment in support of Operation Atlantic Resolve when the 1st Air Cavalry Brigade landed en masse at the port of Zeebrugge in Belgium. After staging through Chievres Air Base the bulk of the deployment headed to the Bavarian region of Germany which ...
