Heading to the spottersday… I guess I’m not the only one…

Well, that was a great day! Wonderfull organization bij GRAS, amazing access and an old school variety of visitors to today’s spottersday at Gilze-Rijen Air Base. I still need to go through all my images and edit them, so it will be a slow trickle of images again. Here’s one of the high-lights, the German CH-53, in a special paint job.

Light was a challenge. Big blue skies, big white fluffy clouds, big rain showers, no sun, birght sun. Never a dull moment :slight_smile:

And the home team can’t be left out of course. Plenty of Chinook action throughout the day…

nice stuff, seems like you had a great day!

It was like the good old days. Lots of flying, great variety, good access, low key and not too busy. Perfect for an old dude like me :slight_smile:
