there is a small radome behind the FLIR turret. It is a pollution detection scanner ??
There is no pollution scanner in this version. Polish Navy was not requesting this.
I believe it has already been sold to Vietnam.
Yes, they have sold two to Vietnam last year, but they have been no equipped with radars or other electronic devices. They was sold as a passengers version with possibility to upgrade to reconnaissance version.
Perhaps we should have a little more patience with someone whose first language is clearly not English, hmm?
Thank you Grey Area for your word,
I am the photographer and just wanted to show the picture; very unique and difficult to take. It was taken in extremly hard conditions. Lo light and turbulence.
And unfortunately I haven’t heard a word about if in your opinion this shot is cool or not. It just woke up philosophers who began to lever realism of this shot and cling me about my English.
And this thread is about the pics, not about landing procedures or safety rules that is why I was expecting discussion about interesting pictures here.
Sorry for everyone who can’t understand me 🙁
Well, at the alt they are at, the should be keeping an eye out the window.
So NO, I’m not wrong in that sense.
What can I say? For sure you don’t know how the work as a airline pilot looks like. They know what to do, belive me 😀
A simulator I guess.
No way would both pilots take their eye off what they’re doing if it were a real flight.
You are absolutely wrong. This is a real flight. What is the problem to turn the heads for a few seconds if the autopilot is on?
At the risk of looking an absolute pillock….. how on earth was this picture taken?
It was CentralWings B737. Flight to Lisbon. Behind the windows you can see the Lisbon.
I believe it has already been sold to Vietnam.
Nope, this is not true. There are a few in Nepal, but cargo version named Skytruck.

We also can see a MAD tail but is this bryza fitted with a sonobuoy launcher ??
Can it carry weapons ??
I will chceck if there is a pollution detection scanner. And Yes, Bryza has a sonobuoy launcher.
Bryza is not going to carry weapon in this version, but we will se in next modification.
As usual no chances to sell one, I assume?
There is always the chance. It just depends on price you will offer 😉
Is there and armed version? Any export succeses yet? This thing can take on the PC-9/21 and the Tucano with ease I think. They were modified right? If I am not mistaken the ”upgrade” kit costs 250.000 dollars!!
There is no armed version. This aircraft was designed for basic training in the Air Force, so this was no necessary to add the weapon.
Thats one of the best looking turbo props I have ever seen! Is it a all Polish design?
Absolutely 100% Polish!! 🙂
Hi Air2Air.net,
Beautiful pics! I also had a look at your website, very nice!
I have a question for you: What kind of camera and what lenses do you use for your aerial photography?PS: Sorry, for the similarity of my username, but I use the same nickname in some other forums, so I wanted to keep it in this forum as well. Also, I didn’t know that someone else is using a similar name, when I registered yesterday. I hope it doesn’t cause too much confusion. 😀
I use Canon EOS 1VHS body, 28-135IS and 100-400L IS lenses. I use Fujifilm Velvia 100F and Provia 100F. But when I fly jets I only take a short zoom lens up in the air, because of free space in the cockpits 🙂
i’m glad you liked my pics Mariusz. 🙂
now, a question for ya…
do you have any pics of Su-22 9308? the one with the nose art, it is said that belongs to 8 eskadra lotniza at miroslawiek,
i love its boar on fire nose 😎 really shows what the Suko is all about. 😉
Camaro.
The one what I did is 707:



but 9308 is here


BTW
I did last year a nice wide angle shot of landing 8511 Su-22 on Public Road Landing Strip Exercises.

These are GREAT 🙂
