I viewed, the Flypast from N44.48328 E026.07581.This in on a boulevard, named, Soseau Bucharesti Ploiesti, which is near the railway station. From here, the flypast passes right to left.

Re: Bucharest flypast 01-12-2019

Hi Rob.

Thanks, for the information regarding 5913. Its presence now makes sense.

I had always thought, that the IAR-99 was called Soim. Thanks for the clarification.

Cheers.

Re: Bucharest flypast 01-12-2019

Hello again.

Just realised the missing IAR-99s were in Renes post. Doh!
Namely 708 and 711.
Post now edited to add that information.
Only the Navy Puma to go.
