That's a great set Dan, good to see such variety from the best base we have in the UK photographically.
The French and Danes are the pick of the bunch, but that Hawkeye mate...

Re: Belgian Air Force Days 2023 - Kleine-Brogel Airbase
So water is limited not only by number of outlets but also by the temperature gauge. Website states we can only bring 'A' bottle of water and/or snack. The temps every day this week have been touching 30 from 11am onwards so people are going to get through their water a lot quicker than you'd imagin...

Re: Belgian Air Force Days 2023 - Kleine-Brogel Airbase
Portuguese F16s have actually been a common sight at BAF Days and the odd Sanicole in recent times. Good relations between the KB and Monte Real squadrons… But a Merlin remains a possibility

Falcon Leap depends on what week you'll be there, but regardless always worth dropping in as they fly 2/3 sorties a day. You can cover all the angles available in two sorties, especially now they operate from the Northern ramp. The first week see's less participants undertaking cargo drops in inacce...

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread
Somethings a bit off with the B-52 in my opinion. No one around it all day but no reason given for the no show, KC-135 doesn’t attend either, rumours on FC are now saying it’s off tomorrow too, but the ground crew are saying it’s still on, it’s slightly odd. Of course don’t want to have my tin foil...

We can add Spanish P-3s to the list. After the last airframe returned from detachment in Djibouti during the week, the type was retired at Moron yesterday.

Do people really expect each and every update to be packed full of front line fighters, headline acts and rarity we haven't seen for years? Honestly, each week after every update the same people are making the same comments and it's getting a bit tiresome. By all means have an opinion and share it, ...

Cracking efforts Nick, some lovely shot in that selection. Looks like France was very rewarding mate, love some of those Mirages.
Was good to see you at Brize and LHR briefly, hope our paths cross again in the coming months.

Think I agree with your summary of the USMC on Dartmoor though, they are just outstanding, what an experience.

Great set Tom, packed in quite a lot despite the late start there.
Particularly like the USMC VH-3s at Northolt. Was good to briefly catch up as Biden departed though. Hope to see you in the coming year mate.

Some great entries here from across the years, glad it provided a wide range of types making it hard to pick out a winner. Especially enjoyed the older shots, notably the Russian hardware from the 90's and some famous moments. But I've whittled it down to a top 3: 3. Pete's North Korean Tu-134, look...

Getting harder to pick a theme with this being the 49th competition. But looking at the list, I'm not seeing Eastern Bloc as having featured yet so that's what you've got for the next 48 hours: Civil/military, any era, any nationality, fighters/transports/bombers/trainers, so long as its an Eastern ...
