Rubber, Anybody?
Rubberland on Raadi Military Airfield. Notice the formula 1 tyres:) About the now abandoned airfield: strategic bombers carrying nuclear warheads used to take off and land every 10 minutes - used to watch them land through kitchen windows in 1980ies. Maybe next time I'll show the runway too, this time it was a bit dark for my shitty camera. Photo by Vahur, June 2014

The day of the Airborne Troops

Den Desantnikov in Jõhvi. Scary, but stylish.

Some russian rock music to make the mood.
And, of course, there was a plane shooting out paratroopers.
Although this one might not have chosen the best colours for his parachute.
Info and pics of how they do it in Russia.

I knew it was a crime

DUKE
Yeah. I know. I'm guilty. I understand that. I knew it was a crime but I did it anyway. Shit,
why argue? I'm a fucking criminal.
HIGHWAY PATROLMAN
That's a strange attitude.
("Fear and Loathing")
Actually everybody listened in a humble way to the policeman's fatherly lecture about dangers of strong alcohol and broken glass.
