I have a question regarding the 3rd picture from top to bottom.In my childhood
I lived near Academia Militara at Cotroceni. I never saw an airfield at Cotroceni
but there must have been one, otherwise IAR would have not perfomed repairs
at Cotroceni.....

Talking about Cotroceni on the night of 9/10 Aug 1944 LP 465 S Sqd 37
RAF, 205th GP of Sgt.Double and his crew enroute from Ploesti crashed
at Cotroceni. Were the remains of the Wellington ever found ? I don't
remember anyone who ever heard about this crash at Cotroceni in Bucharest
during my childhood time...though according various books , indeed
crashed near Cotroceni.

Any help will be appreciated

Al

Cotroceni airfield was established in 1910, unofficially, with thestart of flight testing and Aurel Vlaicu.
Airfild and the workshops here have functional up until 1950, in 1949 changed the profile workshops in electric car factory as the Dinamo Cotroceni, here are
some works in aircraft and engine repair shops by the end of 1950 when the team of specialists and equipment are incorporated in the new ARMV-2 of the aerodrome Pipera.
The track was undava Razoare area right up to the current street Sibiu Timisoara Boulevard.

For Cotroceni airfield, see this old topic: http://www.worldwar2.ro/forum/index.php?showtopic=2655

Since 2005, the old hangars in the UMEB yard were tore down when the factory moved outside of Bucharest to make room for the AFI Cotroceni mall. Probably only the ruin in between the old Ho Chi Mihn complex remains.

seeker, as always, please also add sources to the images. Rules are rules. Thank you.

1. http://www.savevid.com/
2. No, it's FW-190 (BMW-801) sound, because the original sound was not good.

The Il-2 flight simulator featured flyable I.A.R.80/81 many years ago as well as dedicated campaigns involving it.
