Poland holiday trip July/August 2014

Post by Kanarie »

During my holiday in Poland in combination with the wedding there of another scramble board member. Next to the cultural highlights I ran into some planes as well. Here’s what has been seen:

19-july-2014
On the way to Wroclaw in Germany we passed Kamener Kreuz near Dortmund a MBB Bo105 was noted:
(80+96) Bo105M HEER, preserved in Yellow c/s

Further on the route in Poland we passed Jadwisin where along the highway a Mi2 was noted:
35 red Mi2 Soviet AF, preserved

21-july-2014
While heading for Karpacz from Wroclaw, we passed the airfield of Jelenia Gora. The following was logged.

From Karpacz we moved to Szklarska Poreba and passed Lomnica where near a gasstation a Mi2 was noted:

After the wedding we moved on to the neighbourhood of Cracow and passed Andrychow
1527 Lim2 PWL, preserved

A short visit was payed to the airfield of Bielsko Biala. Unfortunately the airfield was already closed, so no chance to get into the hangars where a Yak12M and L4H should be present. Despite some help of a friendly Polish man, who confirmed the aircraft still to be there, no access to the locked hangars.
Outside was noted:

Through a keyhole one aircraft in the hangar was identified

30-july-2014
As Cracow has a very nice aircraft museum this could needed to be visited. So after spending a whole day in the city, the next day in Cracow was started with a visit to the Polish Aviation Museum. For some additional info the Museum’s website was used: http://www.muzeumlotnictwa.pl/indexen.php

Next to the museum on this old airfield, the airfield is still used by the Policja helicopters. Just after arrival when walking around outside the hangar was opened and a PZL Kania was pulled out. While pulling out, a 2nd PZL Kania was noticed inside (did not look operational, no rotors and some covers applied). The Kania pulled outside was started a couples of meters distance and took off to return after about 1 hr.
