22nd October 2021 - A visit to Siófok-Kiliti airfield
A first visit to this amazingly large (3 kms long) and amazingly flat airfield. We were invited inside by Mr. Csaba Setela, an ex-military helicopter pilot who runs a skydiving school at Kiliti, using the two Mi-8s we saw (HA-HSA and HA-HSE). We were able to explore HSA inside the hangar, including taking a look inside. Also in the hangar was Mi-2 No. 9408, which was being refurbished. It is hoped to establish an aircraft museum at the airfield, with the star attraction being a ground-running Mig-21.
