Medellin - Olaya Herrera Airport is only open between 06.00 and 18.00 Local time. Just after airport closure two Blackhawk appeared probably from the airbase at Rionegro. They hovered low above the runway. It was difficult for photography due to the low light and the distance from where I was standing.

Parque del Avion is loated just outside the historical center of the town of Villa de Leiva in the Boyaca district of Colombia. About 3 hours north of Bogota.

About a 15 minute walk from the main square in Villa de Leiva is a small city park called Parque del Avion. It houses a helicopter and a training aircraft from the Colombian Air Force. FAC4265 is not the original registration of this helicopter, as FAC4265 was reported as being a H.269 that was possibly written off

This flight arrived with some 30 passengers, all dressed in civilian clothes, but all must be working here for the Police, the government or security services in this extreme remote corner of the country.

Originally deliverred to Colombia in 1968, and still going strong.

This Fokker F-28 was delivered factory new to the Colombian Air Force in January 1971, 52 Years Ago !! Unbelievable that it is still in regular use in Bogota.

Technical stop of this Boeing 737-732 of the Colombian Air Force, coming from Toulouse, continuing the flight to Belem, Cali and finally in Bogotá.-
