I would like to attend to this event at 12 augustus 2008 Monino Air Force Day , but I can not find more information about it.

Who has all the need-to-know information?

thanks!

Hello,

I'm one of Monino Volunteer Aviarestorer Team. We have no information about the flights this day.

I guess it will be just an Open Door day. Our team prepare few airplane to open this day. The list is not affirmed.

Just I guess it will be:
Tupolev Tu-114 Khruschov's plane (CCCP-L5611), our team work mainly with this exhibit
Mil Mi-12, as usual
Lisunov Li-2 as flying hospital

It may be some aircrafts as MiG-31, MiG-9, Kamov Ka-25(anti-submarine helicopter) and may be Yak-40 as soviet retro passenger airplane.

But I repeat that the list is not affirmed(usually it happens only few days before Open Door day).

Thanks for the info!
Much appreciated as this is the only information so far.

Do you have any more information?
How big will this event be?

greetings

It will take place 17 Aug, Sunday(The deputy director said yesterday). No information about the flights and no works on Tu-114 now...

Any news about the event at Monino on 17-8 ??

Which aircraft will be opened?

Will there also be a flypast?

Where is the parking for cars? At the nearby VVS academy?

[MayDay]

The list of aircraft to open(for today) is:
Li-2, Mi-12, MiG-9, MiG-31, MiG-105 with small Buran aerodynamical mock-up, Su-17UM4, Yak-40 and the exhibition about 2 unmanned aircrafts. It is nearly 100%.

No flights(except Chkalovsky usual traffic, of course)

Access - for now, go by Gorkovsky highway towards Moscow and after KPP Yujny turn right towards vegetable gardens... May be they will open Monino for cars this day - in that case I'll notify you there.

It is not official event in Monino... So, use this turn to approach(in the center of screen)
