Here's some MIG-21 variants of the Hungarian AF, in different stages of repair/dis-repair! Looks like a used car lot!

Don't know the story with them, my brother is over there and took the photo's and sent them to me with no information regarding the aircraft.

Sad thing is according to the story in the link they are to be scrapped, that sucks!

Looks like Billy Bob got him one to take back to the farm.

What a crap time for the economy to be in the tank! I know there are at least a small handfull of investors who otherwise would probably make a stab at some of these.

One of the SU-17's shown in better days, Kecskement AB 1990. I also met Dean Martin who was at the Base buying some of their Mig's.

Better investment than GOLD? :shock:

It is a shame, there are probably quite a few museums that would love to have one of those but there is no coin in the coffers!
