Panning with helicopters, always a challenge in photography. This one worked out well, Q-08 during a low-pass over the runway of its homebase Gilze Rijen. 301sq took over the squadron traditions of the once 314sq "Redskins", known as a F-84F, NF-5A/B and later F-16A/B squadron that was disbanded in 1995. The 301 squadron "Redskins" was founded on 31 January 1997, and continued their operations with the AH-64D attack helicopter.
