Great photos dawestsides.....

 

Good to know that stories about the demise of Monino are untrue - it still looks great.

I've heard the same rumors about a possible transfer to the recently opened Patriot Park in Kubinka, but I highly doubt it, it would be too costly. Yesterday the museum was buzzing with activity, a lot of volunteers were there (see scaffolding on the Mi-12 pics).

All I can say is thank you very much for taking the time to post these gorgeous pictures. It's not often one gets to see this number of Russian aircraft. Would where you took pictures be the equivalent of the US Air Force Museum?

I have never been there so I can not answer, I am more into russian hardware 😋

Check out their official website :- http://www.monino.ru/

 

It's a bit clunky - and in Russian.

 

Click on the 'Ekspositsiya' link for some great views of the 'Exposition' (2nd link under the red star)

Thanks for the link Flankerman. I'm using the Chrome browser, so it automatically translated the website. They have a lot of artifacts and aircraft inside the halls, but the layout and displays seem to be old school museum style, unlike the modern graphic presentations of the USAF Museum. Still, it would be fantastic to visit.
