Forum rules
ImageThis 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.

Mig-21 & TS-11 near Darmstadt, Germany

Post by Beagle »

Quite recently a new Shopping Center near Darmstadt, Germany called "Loop 5" opened its doors. There are 2 preserved aircraft, a Mig-21 and a TS-11 Iskra. The centre is located at Weiterstadt, about 15 kms south of Frankfurt Airport, just off the A5 motorway.

The Mig-21 PFM, assumingly ex 6910 of the Polish AF, can be found right below the roof windows. Unfortunately, it wears a fantasy paint scheme now.

Iskra 1621 is displayed in its original Polish AF colours inside “Dielmann” shoe shop. Not the best conditions to take a decent picture here.
