Scramble Messageboard

In Hungary the Danube is going to break a lot of records, and for that a lot of work is needed at the dams. The HUAF sent 4 helis (1 was as a reverse at Pápa AFB) to help. The pilots started their routine pre-check at 3 o'clock in the morning and started their work at the first sunlight, around 5. M...

It flew out its time, also when it became a gate guard in 1995 it "became" non-air worthy. It will be on display, possible gate quard at Pápa AFB.

The 109 serial number Mi-24 came to Hungary in 1978 and flew out it's time in 1995, after that till the closure of the Air Base at Szentkirályszabadja, it was a gate guard till 2004. After that it was moved to Pápa AFB. Last year the people at the air base had an idea to restore it. This week I had ...

I was yesterday at Pápa AFB. Although I did not go for the C-17's, one of them and a WizzAir (possible Airbus 319?) did "hundreds" of touch & go on the base.

This came out by an accident. I was "shooting" the HIND when it came between me and the sun, and hence it became under exposed, also I always under expose my pictures with 1 or 2 aperture. Adding some sepia tone to it, and you have the following. http://kepfeltoltes.hu/120821/_MG_9171-Edit_www.kepfe...

Been to Greece and checked 5 air bases: The good thing was that the big generals decided that all main plane types should be on each air bases. For example the Mirage's were located to Larissa too, and the A-7 from Araxos. 111th Combat Wing, Nea Anchialos AB - just static: F-16C/D Block 30, F-16C/D ...

Thank you!

We are also having plans for future fixed wing shows!!!
