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. |

Wonderful, smashing photos again Anton
Judging by the picture at
showing the state of the concrete/tarmac the FOD-screens of this particular early-mark Mig-29 might become rather useful one day...

I just love the special atmosphere at this reservebase with its nice background, plated taxiways & runways, weed between the concrete plates and older Russian style radars. Reminds me of my many visits to the East during the 1990-2000 period.
