Request about spotting in Slovenia

Post by F17_114PM »

Hi,

in a few days, I will go to Slovenia. Since it will be the first time, I have (only) three questions regarding spotting there:

1. The most obvious one, is spotting tolerated there or not? Especially, since Ljubliana is a joint civil/military airport!

2. Are any other detachments for the summer-saison of, for example the Pumas or AB-412, to expect and if yes, on which airports/airfields?

3. Except in Ljubliana, are the police helis, anywhere else based?

That´s it! Thank you very much, for taking the time to read this, and maybe to answer :wink:

Many greetings
Marcus

I was at Ljubljana 2 years ago; no problem for spotting whatsoever, although I'm not sure about taking pictures. They even have a panorama deck which can be reached as follows; leaving the terminal go to the right, after a small walk you see a metal staircase on your righthand side which leads up and over the terminal building to offer a view on the platform and runway.
Leaving the terrace again by the stairs, you can see a preserved Adria DC6 almost straight ahead.

Hope this helps ;)

Grtz, John

for sure answer 1 is yes. make a search on Airliners.net . There is a guy taking pictures from there. Once I asked him if it was possible and he said yes to me.

Spotting at LJLJ

Post by Le Addeur noir »

Hello

In July 2000,I was able to visit the Slovenian AF area by asking at the gate and then being given a short no-notice tour.

However since 9/11 this is probably not possible.

If you have the use of a car,you can go to the opposite side of the field and view into the air force area.There should be no problem doing this.
