Aviacioni Ushtarak Shqiptare 1997

Albania 1997 Farka helicopter base

On a small sheep track the little blue bus made in China proceeds with difficulty to bring me to the Farka's helicopter base.It 'a desolate place and seems to be in North Korea instead in a country near Italy!!!!The guards look at me appalled because no foreigners and cameras had never been here.Initially suspicious and threatening but then pose and allow themselves to be photographed
For the first time I see the Harbin Z-5 the Chinese copy of Mi-4.

Hi, Coldwater, you really should "invest" in a good scanner or let some company do it for you. Your pictures are great and have a high historic value. Rgds, Carl.
