Hi Erwin,

We pitched up on Sunday after the Brno show and recored all that you saw also. However in the aeroclub hangar were another 3 Su-22s and we read 3701 off a light coloured one and also a white L29 serialled 3235. Hope this helps.

However on the other side of the airfield the only Hip we could not read was the one on the western fringe facing into the airfield with a cover on the nose - was this 9915?

Many thanks,

Regards

Oops :oops:
We only saw one inside, the mentioned one, with a lot of civil small stuff.

Must have been. The 9915 was the last one we read off. It was indeed parked head on if you were in the small village along the northern fence. We had to walk quite a distance through the fields to the west to read it.

Evening Erwin,

Many thanks for reply. At the back of the hangar were large clear windows and you could clearly see two more covered Fitter tails in the wings of the building away from the doors. From the front of the hangar we could see them also and another nose (3701) but read them off through every gap. There were eight of us though poking into every gap! Great Fitter photographs outside though, weren't they?

Thanks for this last Hip, we had to get moving to be somewhere else and tried every road down and decided to move and forget it until I saw your post. Thanks again.

Regards
Rick Ware
