First visit at the loop
A bit late, but I hope not too late For the first time I visited Mach Loop in June 2014. What a great place for photographers and aircraft enthusiasts. Here is a small selection of pictures that I could create in three days. http://earth-and-sky.de/component/joomgallery/image.raw?type=img&id=574...

Little Britain Tour
A little bit late, but I hope it's not too late. This year in August I spent my holidays in Britain. I use this time to visit some Airbases in Suffolk, Norfolk and Lincolnshire. The first Base on my trip was RAF Lakenheath where I could make some F-15 images. http://earth-and-sky.de/component/joomga...

@ Hornet and Bassalot
Absolutely right. It is the airbase in Meiringen, where we flew over. Then followed a field landing on the Axalp-shooting range.
