This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |
Ik think he means the museum itself looks like a dump. I was there a few years ago and was a bit surprised at the state of some of the aircraft. Looking at these pics I think there is not much done between 2005 and 2009, even Concorde is still all white (after all the graffiti was removed). I sure hope there is some money left to paint the fuselage into Air France colors again and finish the restoration project started several years ago....JJ37 wrote:The museum still exists I have not seen any dump I´m sorry.
I have to agree with you that you have to be inside the museum to find out that it is actually a nice place to spent a few hours. The people who are responsible for maintaining the aircraft are very enthusiastic, I got a whole tour around and inside Concorde and was allowed to enter the cockpit for some nice shots. Only thing that slightly worries me is that it looks like the Concorde restoration project is going very slowly at the moment. In 2005 they said that within 2 to 3 years the Air France colors would be visible again..Glidepath wrote:my dear helicopter firiend, and other interested readers
Its a museum and called as such. Please show a little more respect for those who try to maintain redundant aircraft. The alternative is the scap yards and the axe. Count yor pleasings. Its costly running an operation like a collection or museum and difficult enough to find volunteers.
There is a tent on site with a special Delta exhibit in it and, once you have bothered to pay the entrance fee (few euro only), you may well find also exhibitions inside the airlines present.
when the musee is closed Photos can be taken form outside, but having a kitchen stair does miracles.
Musee Delta: Moi je dis merci!
