**Pics Added**Mig 21 - Amarillo, TX @1999 - 2000?

Mon Aug 27, 2007 10:46 pm

I saw this Mig at the Tradewinds airport in Amarillo a few years ago. There were parts of a few other Migs and a few TS-11 Iskra Polish trainers in the hanger...

Anyone know what happened to these airplanes and if any are flying today?

Thanks

Zane,
MiG-21PFM 4102, in the photos, is at the National Warplane Museum at Elmira NY. It arrived there in Juy 2000.
I've not had any recent reports of the other ex Polish stuff that was there.

I found the other two photos from this day in Amarillo.

Looks like one of these TS-11's is possibly a former Red Spark demonstration team aircraft.

The others I have no ID on.

Silly observation: :roll: Doesn't the Iskra sorta look like a greatly-enlarged Temco TT-1 Pinto?

Cheers!
