Hi All,


Just back from 2 weeks in Hungary. Great show!! And we also spent some time spotting operationel at both bases. On thursday the 16th also all MIGS were noted from outside, except the 23. We also wrote down the serail was red or black.

Thursday the 16th:

01 red dispersal
03 black dispersal
04 black Flight Hanger canopy open
05 red dispersal
06 black dispersal
07 red dispersal
08 black dispersal
09 black HAS QRA
10 black Flight Hanger canopy open
11 black dispersal
12 red dispersal
14 red dispersal
15 black HAS QRA
16 black dispersal
18 black flight line
19 red dispersal
20 red dispersal
21 black Flight Hanger canopy open
22 red dispersal
23 red stored behind L39 storage line
24 red dispersal
25 red dispersal
26 black Flight Hanger canopy open
27 black Flight line
28 red dispersal
29 red dispersal


So all the red one's are NOT flying anymore.....???


On the 16th also was noted in the Flight Hanger (last hanger before dispersals) MI-8 10438



I can confirm The Turkish Stars as 4029 and the spare one the 3066.

On the 16th also the FA-131 was leaving...probably it was broken

One last question, on saturday the 11th there was a police H-500 flying around. Who knows this ID??


Happy Spotting in Hungary,

GIPS

According to 'local sources': red ones will not fly again, and some of the black ones which were among the red ones will also not fly. The whole Hungarian Fulcrum fleet is to be withdrawn by 2009 :(:(:(

The 'sources' said that all the aircraft might serve on for another 10 years or more... :S:S:S:S[/img]

Morning all,

And one Hungarian AF sergeant I spoke with told me that all the stored Migs in the revetments will be broken up for scrap within the next four months. I was so surprised I asked him to confirm that, which he did, none of them in the revetments will fly again so they are being scrapped before end-07.

Vulture One,

you mean the MiGs stored at Pápa AB's "Jurassic Park" or the ones withdrawn from use at Kecskemét AB?

Best,

Tomcat

Hi Tomcat,

The HAF sergeant I spoke to was referring directly to the Mig 29s in the revetments at Kecskemet - all to be scrapped in four months. As I said this did surprise me and asked him just to make sure that I understood correctly.

I was told by someone else that the Papa Migs and Su22s will be scrapped by end September but this was not a similar source.

Anyway who knows for certain, we can only pass on what we are told.

Regards
Rick

Does anyone have more info on the SM-1 (Mi-1) with serial 06 ??
And anyone more info on the Yak-11 with serial 19 ??
There were both parked at the static.

I've been told by a close friend of mine that the Yak-11 is the restored unmarked Yak-11 from the Szolnok museum.(13-april-2006) It will go to a German museum (if I'remember well) in exchange for a Messerschmidt 108.
So far I have found no info about the real id of this yak.
The SM-1 could be the real 06 (c/n W05006) which used to be located at Merseburg (Germany) feb-1998, or it could be a restored airframe with a fake registration. Time will tell.
Rob, I hope this info helps a bit.
