GREAT shots.
Did that MIG-23 fly in the show? I'd love to see video of that as it's been ages since I've seen one in the air...

No, and from what I was told that aircraft was donated to the museum/airport many years ago and has just been sitting in un-flightworthy condition. Ironically one day while I was near the plane filming a group of Russian attendees started looking at the plane and after talking, one of them actually flew Mig-23's
