Forum rules
ImageThis 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.

Hello,

Just some uploads from Elvin's recent tour in Russia.


During my holiday in Russia in the place Pyatigorsk i met a great guy who would like to show me the nearby airfield of Essentuki.

Too bad i was one day to late, There was a local airshow on the 17th.

In the town of Pyatigorsk there was also a nice relic preserved in the form of a MiG-17 in front of a building for recruting militairy personel. I tried in my best Russian if i could have a look but unfortunatly i wasn't allowed to enter the building so its c/n is stil unknown.
