The Indian Air Force has just decided to phase this type out so there could be some cheaper ones on the market quite soon!

Supersonic flights in any aircraft over the US are limited to certain military test areas. We can get permission for buyer at China Lake and Edwards AFB.

To quote a good friend of mine who owns a MIG15 (and has been looking for a buyer for two years+)....

"Operating a MIG is like having trousers with no pocket lining...you just keep shoving the money in, and presto, it disappers".

Until recently I worked with a colleague who used to fly Mig-21s. We did a virtual sortie in the local pub one evening - the handling gets exciting after about 5 pints...

Chuck Yeager rated it highly, and preferred it to the F-4

Why settle for a Mig 21 when you can buy a Nuke Sub. ;)

A 'PF' as well and if believed reasonable engine time remaining...

The early 'F' series used to sit on its' butt in the air as you burned up fuel past 60% as C of G - now not a lot of people know that :p
