Szentkirályszabadja,  28 April 2003

The next day we woke up around 5.30h in the morning. We hoped to see some of the many MiG-21's which are stored at Pápa airbase, but since Endre and Dávid were arrested at Pápa the day before, we decided to skip Pápa.

Next stop, helicopter base Szentkirályszabadja, where I managed to arrange a base visit for the four of us. We were lucky to have Endre and Dávid driving in front of us, so it was very easy to find our way through Hungary. When we entered the base we immediately went to a hangar in which some Mi-8s and Mi-24s were parked. After that we walked towards the platform were lots of Mi-8s, Mi-17s and Mi-24s were parked. Unfortunately we weren't allowed to take pictures of all the helicopters.

After our visit at Szentkirályszabadja we went to Székesfehérvár to have lunch at Dávids place. And later Dávid showed us a Ka-26 in which his dad flew in the Hungarian Air Force. Now it's used as a crop-duster and we were lucky enough to see it taking off from a small helicopter platform.
