Remarks: With the revised, darker tone, a Hungary Air Force An-26 is on close final at 31R but never landed. Just approached, and made a go around towards Kecskemet Air Base, Central Hungary. This shot is dedicated to CAPT. Zsomle Jozsef, who was commanding this particular plane on 7 September 1996, taking us, the very first Hungarian joint Military and Police contingent back home to Hungary (Tokol) from el-Gorah base, Sinai, Egypt via Athens and Szolnok. That was a trip! The plane is a real veteran, delivered to Hungary Air Force in 1975!
Remarks: Long time abandoned debries of an unsuccessful landing, and few minutes opportunity to take some valuable photos here in Quelimane, where our UN An-26 just landed for refuelling enroute Nampula to Maputo. Scanned from an old slide. Dedicated to my mate, Mr. Varga Zoltan (Zolee).
Remarks: Heavy wet snow and strong winds to land the plane on its tail. But now it seems that the plane says "I still want to fly! Let me go to heaven!"
