My Week In Sunny Beach, Bulgaria

[benji1867]

I went on holiday to Sunny Beach, Bulgaria on 22/07/11 til 30/07/11 departing from Doncaster Sheffield to Borgas. There was just a couple of Wizz at DSA and te Thomson i felw out on. Arrived at Borgas early hours of the 23/07/11, we parked up right next to a NAS JAcksonville based P3 (158922) which was nice There was 2 AN124's in the cargo area but as it was dark i got no photos or numbers (if anyone knows how to trace these it would be appreciated, they were Antonov Livery) Got quite a lot of OTT traffic over Sunny Beach. Pretty much everything flying north or east came over and same when inbound also. Heres what i got when i had my camera with me which wasnt often. PLease excuse the quality of these, mostly were mid altitude OTT's or helos buzzing over hotel at low lever with minimal notice.

Wow ! Some nice stuff there Ben.

Your Tu-204 is a Vim 757 mate! Seems they get some interesting gear there!

[benji1867]

cheers Charles, it was a speculative guess at best. Its better than i thought. Would have love to have arrived and departed in daylight instead of pitch black but you cant have everything.

The Tu. 154 looks like a Belavia from here.

However, that Georgian Ilyushin is a cracker. Some really interesting goods over in that part of the world!

Might even be worth a holiday one of these days

Yea lots of stuff I didn't catch with the camera too. The IL76 was funny as I was sat with a beer on the beach had to vault a fence to see what it was and shout our lass to throw me the camera, otherwise I may have got a front on shot.
