The solitude of the Terminal 1

by szgabor

This shot was taken at the Terminal 1 of the Budapest International Airport. Nowadays it isn't used by the passengers because the national airways was led to bankrupt by our "erudite" government.

All governments are "erudite". Here all works at its best and 2014 will be the year of "Light at the end of the tunnel". 3 ya same words after A Person and his governemnt were sent home using bad manners.BUT No names because we do live in Democracy. PS About photo: a good BW. It reminds me a deserted town after Atomic Bomb or better during summer holidays.

Amazes me how a government can allow a national airline to die. I guess Ryanair and Wizzair are doing the job now. It's a sad scene.
Welcome back Gábor, we missed you!

Yes, this building is a sad memorial of a sad (or the better word is stupid) story. Thank you for your nice comment.

A few people (less than 10) well attended with it but the majority didn't.
Your guess is right Ryanair was the first who incresed the count of the lines...
Thanks a lot Paul for your kind words.

I love this, the mono conversion adds to the emptiness.
