A growing number of AMXs (or A-11s) are being stored at Istrana.
In September we saw a group of 5 at the Northwest side, and a group of 11 at the Northeast side. Some were blocking each other out or had weathered codes/serials. We managed to identify the following. Any help with the gaps is much appreciated of course!
Northwest side [5]
'6' > likely M.M.7161 seen there feb19
26 (M.M.7126)
72 (M.M.7172)
85 (M.M.7185)
94 (M.M.7194) this was grey (while 7194 should be painted all black), maybe it was 34?
Northeast side [11]
x7 > candidates were all seen operational 2019/2020 (like 7167/77/97)
49/51-26 (M.M.7149)
51 (M.M.7151)
69(*) (M.M.7169)
70 (M.M.7170)
78(*) (M.M.7178)
91 (M.M.7191)
98 (M.M.7198)
51-45 (M.M.7175) one was also read as '7x' on the fintip, likely this one?
51-44 (M.M.7145)
51-59 (M.M.????) could be read wrong, faded code
The two marked (*) were parked just east/behind the main row.
