Product of golden Czech hands in far away Uzbekistan. The duo of Uzbekistan Airways L-410UVP-Es awaits its next deployment next morning on the apron of domestic flights of Tashkent Airport.
Although the wind was more for RWY 08, due to flight inspection of ILS of RWY 26R they used direction 26 at Tashkent this afternoon, which brought good opportunity to photograph aircraft before touch-down, including this rare Kam Air B737-500 with its additional titles commemorating 20 years of the airline.
I saw this airplane flying in flight level and did not even think it might come exactly to Tashkent. When I discovered it, it was too late to relocate to the opposite end of the airport to photograph it before landing. But I was very lucky as the Boeing 747-400 of the new British airline One Air did not slow down as other aircraft and taxied all the way to me at the end of the runway :-)
