 | 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. |
very cool! I am a helicopter guy myself (crewmember) so I will definitely look into that when I go. thank you for the tips!VH3D wrote:Since my visit (late October 2017) they have added few more birds. Also, at the time of my visit I had no idea that on the museum grounds (ex East German AF airport) there is active Aviation Police unit. If you are into helicopters go and knock on the door. They have few nice units based there.
Look at the H ... left hanger seen from below. 50°4'40.09"N 19°59'24.64"EAmericanSoldier15U wrote:EDIT: What is the name of the Aviation Police unit building, or what can I search on google maps? I can not seem to find the police helicopters. I have found the museum, but do not see any helicopters around it
Interesting. I see 2 Mi-2s and a PZL W-3 in there.VH3D wrote:Yes, that's the place. Hangar without camo roof. There is also a fence, but you can go all the way to the hangar door.
And since you are into helis too, the newest addition is Polish Army Mi-24 V Hind E 739 cn 410739 which in May was getting brand new paint.
So it should be on display by now. That's another reason why I would like to return to that museum.
Actually on my picture of Belgian Mirage, you can see the fence and the silver hangar. So it's right there. When I was there I didn't know about it
Good question ...AmericanSoldier15U wrote:Interesting. I see 2 Mi-2s and a PZL W-3 in there.
Any idea why 739 is already to an museum? Did it have some kind of incident? I was just at Inowroclaw last month and saw a bunch of their Mi-24Vs including 738 so obviously 739 cant be so old that they are retiring it. Must have been some kind of incident?
