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.

Great ! Always nice to watch old Migs.
By the way do you know how many Mig-21 and IAR-99 are still actually flying ?

There are 36 Mig´s activ on both bases (Campia Turzii and Fetesti). Next year the first F-16´s will arrive from Portugal. The number of the IAR-99 should be at least 20 at the base in Boboc.

Hi,

Indeed a nice report!

Actually the number of MiG's is lower. Both Campia and Fetesti (based at MK at the moment) have 10 Lancer-C and 3 Lancer-B each.

As for the IAR-99s, 10 IAR-99 Soim are now based at Bacau with About 9 IAR-99 Standard Boeing based at Boboc. An additional Soim might still be based at Craiova for testing.

Regards, Paul
