Road for supply the tanktruks. This "feet" is for supply or is for light into. I don't now. I see 20 years ago a pipe like handle umbrella in this support.



Each fueltank (group for two) has box like this for valves, for unloading tanker (railway)

From 20 years ago this was a house with subsoil. Under I see many valves, stair case, etc.... There was two houses. Now is two dirty holes...... You can see between firs and secon group tanks, and third and fourth group.




An old/new construction (?) I suppose however, old. Now a big concret hole.
Appeare after fourth tanks like a white square.




Drainage sistem between runway and other fields. Above, was two railways.
Is in bottom of pictures, but I don't see. The old railway go south to old station.

The buildings are a Hospital (for people who have Tuberculosis)

Regarding the introductory remarks, I'm tired to hear, in 2014-2015 the same old bs: "Transylvania, taken from Hungary and given to Romania in 1918, returned to Hungary by the Vienna Award on 30 August 1940." We're not talking about a lost umbrella, dude!

NOBODY took Transylvania from Hungary, in 1918 (!), except the Romanian majority from the province. This is a measure of being both ignorant and offensive in the same time. Perhaps someone could relay my observation to the author. Adjust your knowledge or mind your own business, instead of writing "books"!

There is ABSOLUTELY no need to be so mean!
The pdf article at that link is possibly one of the most amazing pieces of research on Romanian aviation I have seen in the last decade!
I thank the author from the heart! It answered a lot of questions for me. In fact, I think that it should be printed in a book together with the existing photos (aerial and ground-level) of the airfields.
