BIAS 2016 - Lovely LanceRs

Post by Mictheslik »

Back in July I made a trip to Romania for the annual Bucharest Air Show. It turned out to be one of the highlights of the year. Despite the slightly haphazard organisation (the final date was only announced a month or so before the show!) the actual event was superb. A full review can be found here - http://www.aeroresource.co.uk/events/ai ... show-2016/, but for now, here's some of the highlights!

Stunning set, too many to pick a favourite - but I'll wager there's a POTW in there somewhere :clap: :win:

Lovely shots, looks a good event, were all these shots taken inside?

This show was on my radar to attend this year until they started messing with the dates when it was finally confirmed I had other arrangements for that weekend.

Lovely stuff thanks for sharing!

The An-30 is just :love: isn't it?! Anyone else think the Red Bull B-25 really needs some machine guns putting back in? I've never really noticed the lack of them before, but the rear end ( :tongue: ) looks particularly bereft I think!

Cracking stuff

Looks like a class set up, Great Railway Journeys went through Romania last week and I must say it looks to be a spectacular country to visit along with some excellent Scenery.

Is this show a yearly effort?
Cheers

Romania is stunning. Bucharest is a bit tired, but to be expected given its history, but get into the countryside and it's amazing. The people are fantastic too....really into their aviation and love practicing English on Western Europeans!

The show is annual, just don't rely on the first dates they publish :whistle:

Superb set of images. If you don't mind me asking, what camera and lens are used for the flying shots? Would love to go next year, but often wonder if 400mm is enough? (on a full frame)

Love the sunset MiG-21 pics..
