This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

A Mig 29 just flew past my shop, at 12:34 PST!

I'll bet it was Paul Allen's. He has two of them.

Trust me, that's true. I know one of the pilots who will be flying them.

How much money per hour do you think it might cost to fly one of those things?

Really? I thought the Washington state MiG-29 was with Sessions.

I don't know what I can publicly state in detail in regards to this, but needless to say, I've been told by one of the pilots who will be flying the Mig-29 that Paul Allen will ultimately be owner of 2 Mig-29's. I know there was a complex deal involving many people, so that may be where Sessions came in or perhaps he is just giving the hangar space temporarily to Allen. Another possibility is perhaps Sessions has one as well. There might be 3 up there now!

I would suspect at least $ 10,000 an hour when you include everything like direct operating costs, maintenance, parts, insurance, hangar space, etc.
