First flown on 17/12/1935, the DC-3 continues to fly in active commercial and military service even 90 years later. Over the past years I have met her and flown with her in many places from Colombia to New Zealand, and several more adventures are still waiting to be explored. #dc3 #dc3dakota #c47 #skytrain #c47skytrain #90years #Dakota #Douglas #douglasaircraft @allas_sas @alcaldiamirafloresguv @dc3_society @flydc3newzealand #colombia #saaf @saaf_archives #oshkosh #eaaairventure #bt67 #baslerbt67 #dday #amazonas #flying #windowview #wingview #cockpitview #pilotlife #warbird #warbirdphotography

Corkscrewer... a CV-22B Osprey from RAF Mildenhall Corkscrewer... a CV-22B Osprey from RAF Mildenhall leaves Manching during a rather grey winter day. It's an interesting bird, and it produced nice effects with its tiltotors during take-off. Also this was the type's first visit to ETSI. #cv22b #cv22 #v22 #v22osprey #osprey #rafmildenhall #mildenhall #sof #tiltrotor #352ndSOW @352sow @inflight_joerg @xpilots_life #sof #specialoperationsforces #specialoperations
3..2..1..break! Two Luftwaffe Eurofighters behind 3..2..1..break! Two Luftwaffe Eurofighters behind the Hercules. That's a photo from the heat-hazy Elephant Walk at Neuburg earlier this year. Apart from the mass formation several overflights of the airfield were performed. As the closer surroundings of the airbase were closed off during this event, image quality for those that watched it from the ground suffered quite a bit. But the demonstration of German AirPower was quite a sight! @bavarian_tigers @team_luftwaffe #Neuburg #Eurofighter #Hercules #C130Hercules #BATS #Evreux #Luftwaffe #TeamLuftwaffe #airtoairphotography #formationflying

Throwback to Hahnweide, and what an amazing event Throwback to Hahnweide, and what an amazing event it was. Not part of the regular flying program that day, but the P-51D Mustang "Frances Dell" of @flyinglegendscollection stole the show when it arrived on Friday evening just in time for a gorgeous sunset. This photo even made it to 'Photo of the Year' in the @geramond_geschichte Yearbook 2025 - #p51 #p51dmustang #p51mustang #sunset🌅 #hahnweide #ott25 #otthahnweide #airshow #warbird #warbirdphotography #photooftheyear #warbirdlovers

AMK for P4E! Today the German parliament gave gree AMK for P4E! Today the German parliament gave green light to equip P4E Eurofighters with the Aerodynamic Modification Kit (AMK). This includes LERX (Leading Edge Root eXtension), extended fuselage strakes and extended flaperons. Together with software changes this will facilitate future weapon integration and make the platform even more agile. AMK was test flown on IPA7 already a few years ago and I have had the big chance to take some air-air photos during one of those test flights. Photos were taken out of the open ramp of a C-160 Transall. It is great to see this modification coming to the Luftwaffe for their future Eurofighters! #eurofighter @martin.aguera @eurofighter.typhoon #amk #luftwaffe #air2air @bavarian_tigers #eurofightertyphoon #typhoon
