3rd Athens Flying Week

Seven years ago, Athens Flying Week was born. 

Here are some pictures I took during the 3rd AFW:

   Since then it has become a special event for every airplane lover like myself.

 At the same place, there is the home of Hellenic Air Force Museum. You can find some really beautiful images to capture over there.

  Next weekend, the 7th Athens Flying Week (AFW) Tanagra International Air Show 2018 is taking place at Tanagra airport.

   Any Air Show around the world is a unique experience and a great way to take some pictures you will remember; especially if the weather is rainy, as it was on that day back in 2014. See you all there on 22 & 23 September 2018!
