According to the EMOOS, there should be 2 Mig15's and 2 Mig 19's at Ceska Olenka.
Can't find these birds on Google Earth though. Does anyone know their exact location?
Plan to visit them end of this week (if they are still around that is)

Thanks in advance !

Morning,

Probably like yourself, I have also been looking around for stuff near Caslav. These Migs are on Google Earth but are dismantled. They are on the south side of the village on the road directly south. See N49 deg 11'25.14" E 15deg 10'05.85". Sorry I do not have digital long/lats.

Might also be interested in Mig-15 3935 at Jilem, just 5 kms to east of Ceska Olesna. This Mig visible on west side of village.

Hi Rick,

Thanks for th einfo, however, I am unable to locate those aircraft at both Ceska Olesna and Jilem..., are you able to pinpoint them in Google Earth or similar?

Hi,

The Migs at Ceska Olesna are at those lat / longs quoted on Google Earth. I have converted them so simply type or copy and paste in N49.19029 E15.16824 to the Fly to and you will see them in bits.

The Mig-15 at Jilem can be found by typing in N49 10'30.18" E15 15'51.31" . Just copy that and paste it directly into Fly to - saves me from converting!

Good luck.

Regards
Rick

Thanks for the coordinates, I found them both....
I however ended up in different locations then where I got just typing the names and judging from their distance from Caslav, I don't think we'll be going after them after all....
