Re: Thessalonica Airport
Hi Nnthusiast,
I was there is september 2022 and together with some Greek spotters I got all serials from stored/preserved F--5, F-4 and C-47.
I can help you if you have positions, or maybe you made overview pics while landing? See also Eurodemobbed for pics.
Please send me a PM
Regards,
Erik

In weekends there are no a/c outside?
TIA.
