Abandoned airfield
Photoblogger Rusos on the road to the Crimea stopped near an abandoned airfield in Ukraine for spending the night in tents. Early in the morning began the shooting of the airfield hit by the number of aircraft and vehicles.
We continue our expedition to the Crimea. During the day we overcame customs and half way through Ukraine. Before the last breakthrough on the Karabi plateau, we will spend the night somewhere in the central part and visit an abandoned airfield, where, as they say, there are even airplanes. In this we have little faith, for figly at an abandoned aerodrome do abandoned aircraft? They should have long been sold to the color and other met.
So late at night we arrived at the airport area. We only knew that he was somewhere in the field. Searching for it in complete darkness is meaningless, so we set up tents, cooked dinner and fell asleep. An object was waiting for us early in the morning.
To say that I was shocked by what I saw was nothing to say. At the airport was really a bunch of tuev. L-29, An-24РТ, Mi-2, Mi-8 and An-2. Airplanes and a little airfield vehicles stood in several rows to the horizon. Almost everything is whole and not unzipped. We slowly and in total prostration wandered between the aircraft, enjoying the spectacle. An abandoned airfield with airplanes is like a treasure to find something. By the way, they can be reached directly by car. Ride along the strip. We did not find any security. Maybe she slept there in 6 in the morning, maybe she's not there. Although a little bit away from the fence, there was still a lot of L-29 (they are guarded or not, we did not find out) and it seems to be at its best. But they have nowhere to take off.
On these planes should learn new Ukrainian pilots, but alas. No airplanes, no pilots.
