Zehdenick - Dirk Schloepping Collection

Post by johnwickenden » Sun Aug 04, 2019 3:41 pm

Mr Schloepping is a timber merchant / carpenter who lives in the village of Zehdenick, about 30 miles N of Berlin. He is rather a jackdaw for old cold war aircraft and has established a private collection of 30+ complete airframes in the grounds of his home / place of business. Unfortuantely, when I visited on a Sunday it was unavailable to view but much of the contents can be seen from the outside. The following are representative of what he has in his possession.

Its gonna rain, its gonna rain till the levee breaks, a tidal wave of fear and pain washes us away, another fight into the night until nothing else remains, how do we find harbour from the Hurricane?

Never really noticed how 'at home' a Tornado looks in amongst all those soviets! Love that first line up
