Soviet Era Flight Manuals

During the Cold War period the Soviet Union exported aircraft to their client states or other favoured customers. In the case of the Middle East countries it seems that many manuals were printed in the English language. Flight Manuals interest me and I have been collecting them for over 50 years. They are important source material to the historian. Although I have a number of Soviet manuals these are in the Russian language and therefore incomprehensible to me even with the aid of a Russian/English dictionary. Have we any other collectors of FMs and PNs on here who might be able to point me in the right direction as to where the English language versions may be obtained? Types of particular interest include MiGs 15, 17 & 19, Su-7 and Il-28. Thank you.
