Cartourmagazin.hu  collected several airports and museums that we could visit to see an exhibition of old, decommissioned aircrafts. Here is the list.

Alsónémedi 

Locals call this museum “the wreck-ranch”. It is located south of the town, along route 5. You would need permission to enter the premises, but it is easy to obtain it from the main building. The owner reorganises the place often; sometimes there are more aeroplanes, sometimes less. 

This is how it looked like in 1999; today there are only a few left.

Békéscsaba

There is a civilian airport in Békéscsaba where a MiG 15 is displayed. You can take a look at it from route 44, between Békéscsaba and Gyula.

There is a gas station at the edge of town, and right next to it there is a fenced-in area with a large Li-2 plane on display. 

Budaörs

An important civilian airport west of Budapest houses a MiG-21F-13 supersonic jet fighter. The manufacturing of this aircraft stopped in 2002. NATO refers to it as Fishbed. 

Csepel (Kossuth Lajos vocational school)

On the south side of Szabadkikötő street, there is the Kossuth Lajos vocational school with their own aircrafts used for teaching. One of these planes is the MiG-21F-13 we mentioned earlier, but there is also an SM-1 and Ka-26 helicopter. 

Dunaújváros

On one of the biggest airports in Dunaújváros, on the south side of the town, right on route 6, there is another Russian aircraft on display.
