Fotos of Russia Air Force aircraft during russian invasion to Ukraine

Dear AP team! Ukraininan nation experiences very difficult time now. Since 24 of February we are fighting all togeteher against russian agressors, against Russia as a terrorist state. It's a shame that fotos of russian military aircraft still have been posted since than. This is not right at all! Let's make it clear. Now russian agressors can't achieve any their goals and they starting to make what they can do the best - attack civilians and their homes by airstrikes in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv and others using Su-24, Su-34, Su-25 etc.This thing should realize all people around the world. Now I beg you to stop posting any photos of russian military aircraft on AP.net. And of course it would be great stop posting photos of any russian civil aircraft (russian airlines) as well. Thank you.

Totally agree.

As a terrorist state russia MUST be fully isolated from the rest human world.

No time for compromise.

I totally agree. This country has no place in the civilized world.

Until further notice Airplane-Pictures.net will not publish photos of any military aircraft of Russia and Belarus. We have 100% consensus on this within the team.

Martin Krupka, thank you very much!

for the duration of the conflict, it would also be fair to impose a moratorium on the publication of Ukrainian military aircraft

I also ask that a respected resource not turn into a platform for political showdowns and unsubstantiated accusations

We can all see what a terrorist Russian government is all about.

I repeat, I ask you to save the respected resource from political squabbles. This is a place for those who love aviation and not for political disputes. IMHO

Alexander, I agree with you

and further

I put in the queue a photograph of the monument to the civil aircraft IL-62, with the tail number of the USSR, it was immediately rejected without explanation. Even with the current situation, I think it's wrong.

Conflict is politics, spotting is a hobby

I fully support my colleague Igor Mikhelevich in this matter, it always seemed to me that this site is a meeting place for like-minded people who are passionate about aviation and aviation photography. Obviously now we will have to look for a new home for our photos.

Conflict is not politics, there is an open war against Ukraine. Did you do anything to stop this war? No? So you're the same criminal!

And what is to blame for Ukraine not to take pictures of Ukrainian airplanes? russia is the aggressor so save yourself these comments

"Until further notice Airplane-Pictures.net will not publish photos of any military aircraft of Russia and Belarus. We have 100% consensus on this within the team."

The Belarusian Air Force is not participating in this war. If you are going to introduce a moratorium, then for all three countries: Russia, Belarus and Ukraine for the duration of this situation. And then, it is necessary to distinguish between fighters and helicopters and planes of a semi-civilian plan

First of all, I don't want to talk about war,

Secondly, it is not normal to ban: writers, artists, the history of a nation, the flag, sports and much more. And I'm so glad I'm not thinking like you (AP Team), because it's just not good thinking.

But I can give you a suggestion to delete all the profiles you don't like and don't forget to delete the evil flags! :))

Why are you removing forum posts here?

In my opinion, everyone has the right to express their own opinion. Nobody should be treated worse or better.

Let 's separate politics and our passion.

besides, this site is getting worse every year. This has to be worked on

Hi Piotr,

Piotr Kosciolek wanted his account to be removed. Hence his post vanished.

We try to stay distant, however, we had to remove some posts that were posted here to start flame war.

It's been a long time since I've been here.

Good afternoon, everyone, for starters.

And now please explain to me, on what grounds are pictures of US and NATO warplanes posted on this site? Do not they, according to your logic, are not guilty of civilian casualties in the wars of Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, and in the massacre in Yugoslavia? Remind me who was the aggressor there, who flew in and decided to make peace? has everyone forgotten the colin powell test tube?

I will continue. you have a strange way with bans - Russian authors are not allowed to post Russian planes and helicopters, but destroyed Russian equipment is allowed?

You can't agree with yourselves, they have a consensus.

I tried to upload my photos to the site, one was accepted and people, members of A-P, liked them, let's look at them - Michał Wallo, Per Voetmann, Ricardo Hebmüller, Artur Zak, Pavel Bezrukov - AviaPressPhoto, Piotr Knurowski, Roman N., Sandor Vamosi, Vaibhav Shah.

Yes, those who were not afraid, and I will tell you openly - those who were NOT afraid, to put a mark not a few and only one person and Russia. And if you follow your principles - that is the will of the people in free civilized democracies - people want to see pictures of Russian planes and helicopters.

Once again, if you want to prohibit the publication of photos of what you call "aggressors" you need to become a site where you will publish only photos of civilian planes and helicopters.

That is all for now.

Артемка, ты бы лучше молчал

Hi Sergey,

There are no reasons to change our policy.

Why did you delete my photo? Where is your "policy" on your site that you cannot post photos of Russian equipment?

give me a link

One advice for you SergeyL, they will never understand what other (countries) are talking about...

So you have two options, ignore the site or delete your profile. You don't lose anything belive me!!!

Interesting cases.

The editors decided to publish SergeyL's photo, after which SergeyL wrote a post here, entered into a discussion with the founder, after which one of his posts was deleted, as well as his photo.

But the site's team "has 100% consensus" on this topic.

Have the team already forgotten about consensus? Or is he already gone, and someone has begun to understand something?

SergeyL, красава, парень

Guys, I don't want to get into politics, I'm not a politician. I'm one of thousands of other photographers like me on this site, I don't write posts that call for something and I don't publish photos that make me happy about something. I just want to be able to show the beauty of Russian aviation, and I see that both screeners of this resource and ordinary users support me, so what is the problem? you will not deny that for the past 8 years Ukrainian troops have been fighting against what you call "separatists" residents of Donbass, formerly eastern Ukraine? and including the Ukrainian troops used combat aviation, but all previous 8 years you were not against the publications of the Ukrainian air force, what is the problem now? and to repeat my simple question again, all military aviation of NATO countries, the US and parts of the Middle east countries fighting in Iran, 2 wars Afghanistan and Iraq, Syria, Libya, in the end the heart of Europe - Yugoslavia, bombed by US and NATO and ... all planes and helicopters destroying civilians and civilian infrastructure among other things ... are quietly hanging on the A-P website, or is that different? Then explain why it is different?

spinfire, спасибо

For those ruzzian hypocritical "not-a-politicians" and "adherents of democratic principles" (in russia? really?!) - the only possible example of "beauty of russian aviation" is shown here:

https://www.airplane-pictures.net/photo/1491038/rf-13668-russia-air-force-mil-mi-28ub/

You (still) have an opportunity (and you're welcome for sure) to upload your photos of similar scenes.

And given the trends of your "successes" in the war YOU started, your nearest future will be more and more full of such opportunities.

So go on guys until the end!

Oleg, go rejoice in your Ukrainian aviation, ah yes, it's gone, it's gone, did it kill itself? did it crash? it must have gone astray. The Earth is round, remember that

Yes... yes!

"Because the world is round..." - so "If you want blood you've got it"

Nice colours, aren't they?

Just to remember.

( btw, Merry Xmas! )

Enough have been said.
