Over the years my travels through Europe and countless flights, I got a lot of impressions of the airlines with which I had to fly and the airports that I visited. Also accumulated a huge number of photos taken from the plane and at airports waiting for flights. Earlier I placed them on its website, Travels with LPSPhoto, but eventually issued these materials on their own website. Here posted photos of me visited to aviation museums. I hope that my notes will be useful not only air passengers, but also anyone who loves aviation and is interested in its history.
