Bulgarian SU-25 Picture

Post by pg1610 » Sat Oct 30, 2021 12:15 pm

Bulgarian air base arranges actual equipment and personnel as if they are a kid's play set, and takes an aerial picture to celebrate 70 years.

hopefully both work for those not on Twitter

I think this is very clever

That is very good, but something tells me that the Bulgarians have too much spare time on their hands🙂

A great idea and well executed.
Just hope it's a one-off; I can't see the Groundcrew being too happy if the Stn Cdr at Lossie, Conn or Marham sees this as a great idea...

Can’t find the photo now, but they did the same at Krumovo, but much more extensive. 2 Bell 206, 1 Cougar, 1 Hind, 1 Hip, some ground vehicles and about 80 people. I”ll try to find, but they are definitely the winner of this challenge

Interesting to see and it's not unique, in military and elsewhere, I've seen quite a few over the past year or so, it went under the name "Tetris Challenge" and I remember seeing the Israeli Air Force doing similar last year.

Brilliant. Apparently it's a trend called "knolling" but I had never heard of it.

So the Yanks have their "Elephant Walks" and the Bulgarians have Meccano/Lego sets. Too much time on their hands methinks :whistle:

That camo design on the SUs would have been ideal for Harriers in hides.

Sorry for dragging up an old thread but the The IdF have recently published another shot using a G550 Nachshon-Eitam CAEW aircraft 122 "Nachshon" Squadron (based in Nevatim AFB)
