AEROPARK VRSAR

After a long time I'm finally adding some new interesting content to this page...

I visited this nice little airfield in Vrsar, Croatia during my summer holidays in
a nearby village on the Adriatic Sea.
I met some very friendly people who showed me the airport and explained me
their activities. It's a must stop for the GA pilots! Great service, friendly staff
and just few minutes away from the wonderful Croatian beaches.

It's also been the base for the Redbull air race pilots, which was held last spring
in Rovinji, Croatia.

The main reason why I decided to visit this place is their open-air museum with
some nice planes which are possible to visit. They currently have 9 planes but
they have plans to install more aircrafts for exposition in the near future.

You can see some pictures below:

Cessna 152

Hello!
Here some photos of the C-152 I fly for my PPL training.
A true beauty!

Cessna-152 from Carenado

So, let's put aside soviet planes for a bit.I want to show you a simulation of a classic plane, probably the most used in flight school for PPL training. I tried different versions of C-152, but the one from Carenado seems to suite me best. Great graphic, ultra realistic sounds, and what's more important, some excellent flight dynamics. I flew a cessna and I know what flying means. Of course a simulation will never give you the same feeling of real flying, but this aircraft responds much more realistically to your inputs than any other 152 addon. Very pleasant to fly!

Second Visit at Kiev's Aviation Museum - May 2012

Hello everyone! Here some more photos from Kiev's Museum of Aviation.
It was a hot 1st of May in Kiev, but nothing stopped me to walk some kilometres
to museum.

Flight To the North

Hello, this is going to be my last post about Tu-154 for the moment. I want to show you a great documentary taken inside the cockpit of this wonderful plane on the flight from Moscow to Murmansk, in the deep North of Russia (it's considered the biggest city inside Arctic Circle). Here you can find the first of six parts.
Enjoy it! ;)
