Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).
Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.
As promised two pictures of the Fiat G91 thats stored at the Cologne / Wahn Barracks, pretty messed up though. Thought some of you might be interested in seeing it before it probably completely dissapear sooner or later.
I think so, the engine intake and exhaust section is closed by a thick wooden plate so I guess it was standing somewhere as a gate guard before it came here. Btw I posted these pictures on FB yesterday and a guy came up to me wanted to know if its possible to "buy" the G91, I said I will take care of that as soon as Im back in Business, his father flew the Gina and he wants to build up a complete simulator with the front section.

There's also a AJet preserved on a pole at the main gate at Cologne Bonn Barracks!! And Andy is right with his info about the Gina. She was preserved on a pole near the officers' mess till at least 2007 when she was hit by storm Kyrill!!!
Oh yeah I forgot about the alpha jet, thanks for the info about the Gina, I didn't knew what happened to her and nobody could tell me why she was laying there.
Just some add info: We also have a F-104 preserved on a pole near LwFüKdo building. There was another one "fake coded" BB+374 which also was hit by Kyrill. It was laying near the POL for years, but it seemed that this was left Cologne, already!
The F-104 is 23+98 , I already looked it up in the database and it's up to date that's why I haven't mentioned it in here, it's in a pretty good shape though.
