A month ago, Pohoda released the second studio album of band Drť, entitled Minister, and they will play it and officially introduce the new vinyl at the Trenčín Airport in just over two weeks. Following the interview of the former head of ŠTB Alojz Lorenzo, who became the model of the first album Puntičkár (2020), the composer Miroslav Tóth and the lyricist Marek Kundlák used controversial material again for the second album of the band Drť. This time, the lyrics of the songs come from a video recording of Ján Počiatek’s private conversation with Dobroslav Trnka, which was secretly made by “businessman” Marián Kočner. → read more

We started the construction of temporary transformer stations at the airport

For years we have been trying to eliminate diesel consumption in generators at the airport. After the reconstruction of the main transformer station in the “pink building” at the airport, in cooperation with ZSE, we performed wiring for temporary transformer stations, and there will be four stations this year.

We are sending a lot of energy from the airport to everyone... :) → read more
