Photoblogger Rusos on his way to Crimea stopped near an abandoned airfield in Ukraine to spend the night in tents. Early in the morning, filming began on the airfield, which amazed by the number of aircraft and vehicles.
We continue our expedition to the Crimea. In a day, we crossed the customs and half of the way through Ukraine. Before the last dash to 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 planes. We hardly believe in this, for do they go to the abandoned airfield to do the abandoned planes? They should have been sold for a long time for color and other meth.
So we arrived at the airfield area late at night. All we knew was that he was somewhere in the field. There was no point in looking for him in complete darkness, so we pitched our tents, cooked dinner, and went to bed. An object was waiting for us early in the morning.
To say that I was shocked by what I saw is to say nothing. There really was a lot of things at the airport. L-29, An-24RT, Mi-2, Mi-8 and An-2. Airplanes and a little bit of aerodrome vehicles stood in several rows to the horizon. Almost everything is whole and not broken up. We wandered slowly and in complete prostration between the aircraft, enjoying the spectacle. An abandoned airfield with planes is like a treasure to find, or something. By the way, you can drive up to them directly by car. Take a ride on the strip. We did not find any security. Maybe she slept there at 6 in the morning, maybe she's not there. Although a little in the distance behind the fence there was still a party of L-29 (whether they were guarded or not, we did not begin to find out) and seemed to be in its best form. But they have nowhere to take off.
New Ukrainian pilots should learn on these planes, but alas. No planes, no pilots.
