Wow, that place has changed a lot. Are the Harriers based there now, UAE Army seems to have made itself at home too!

[dustybug]

Arrr flashbacks looks like they have properly taken over the far side now .
Oh the memories. Liking the harrier

Quality photos. The american and russian transport plane together is pure class but they are all good.

Thanks for taking the time to post

This place changes almost daily!! AV-8B's arrived a number of weeks ago and as for the UAE you can go weeks without seeing them tnen C-130's C-17 and DHC-6 turn up!!

From a spotters point of view it sounds like heaven, but im sure in reality that its far from that.

Cheers

It took the Marines long enough to move those Harriers over, those ramps were ready for them in May/June last year. Impressive to see the new camps built near the Marine ramps too.

Kev from a spotters pont of view it would be fantastic just for the amount of IL-76 and AN-124 /b747 cargo flights we are getting at the moment..

Tony it is interesting over there but definetley non photography friendly.
