Re: Praha-Kbely museum

Hi Erik,

A long time after your post, but the stored L-39 behind the XL-410 should be 2347. I still need this, now I know where to look (if it's still there that is....)!

Re: Airlines and heavy photographic equipment

First time I flew outside Europe (to the USA), I called the airline because I was having the same thoughts about my camera bag. They were not helpful at all. I was told that when my bag was too heavy and/or too big, I should send it as air freight ahead. Explaining that it was vulnerable and expensi...

Re: Czech Mig - 15UTI in the air

Re: 3x Mi-8 Ramnicu Sarat unknown

All are ex Ianca storage. The location is in EMOOS 2014 under Ramnicu Sarat by the way. Apparently there has even been a fifth one in 2011, still visible on Google Earth if you go back in time.

Re: RAF training: no more Tucano/King Air, T-6C + Phenom ins
