Top secret CZECH Space Flights Control Centre in Czech Houston = Hostouň in Czech language.
(Czechia is smaller than USA, so Control Centre is smaller and located in smaller Houston, than NASA headquarters).
First photos taken in 2006, next in 2009. In the time between, huge final assembly Hall of space rockets was completed nearby.
Huge hall has no windows on two long sides, no advertisement, no title of the company. Contrary, as a camouflage, Czech text "To sell - to hire" is displayed...
It has black and grey special colours - same as used on military aircraft in order not to be visible on satellite photos and to give minimum footprint on radar screens.
Control Centre is heavily guarded and perimeter fence is strengthened by railings, several types of barbed wire and also high voltage wires.
It is almost impossible to get there by car. The photographer penetrated at least to perimeter fence by bicycle. All abovementioned statements are documented by photos secretly taken by special spy camera.

Hostouň hlídky se psy. Hostoun-guard dogs.

Petr Liška endangered his own life to bring you this fascinating story.

SERIOUSLY: This object, now used as a gardenhouse, is a part of fuselage of TU-154B of MALÉV HA-LCF. It made very harsh landing at Prague on Oct 21st, 1981 and the fuselage had broken into two parts.
No victims, only injuries.

TU154B Malev ( MAH - MA ) HA-LCF 21.10.81 letiště Praha-Ruzyně.
Fotografie byla pořízena 90 minut po velmi tvrdém přistání s 81 cestujícími na palubě. (foto: Petr Popelář)

G-BUSH

This aircraft G-BUSH never belonged to G.BUSH. Similarity (- instead of a . ) is non-intentional.
Somebody can have a feeling, that it was registered after US President also due to the fact, that there is freshly painted-over text above reggie. You can have a feeling, that it was grey-re-painted after he finished his presidency.
Real reason for this reggie is:
this aircraft takes cover between flights in a Great Britain's bush - see my photos taken from Czech bush.
