Excellent photos! Is the other Mig scheme you mentioned a new one, or one we already heard of?

I just got the two other MiG schemes... haven't photographed them yet. I have the two F-86s as well.

The 21st Century F-86 and Mig-15 are beautiful models. I look forward to your pictures P-51. :D

I've yet to see any Migs or F-86 anywhere up this way at all. Good thing I got the Soviet Mig online a while back.

Finally found the Russian Mig at the Bryan WM, near College Station. In my opinion it is the best scheme for this plane. Still not seeing any Huff's in Central Texas.

Wow, you got the tiger striped MIG-15 for that price? That is awesome. I keep looking, but they have not showed up around here. :(

There are several Mig-15 sitting here in DFW that I am waiting for the price to drop. If you are interested let me know!

Sorry to hear that.. I went back to that Walmart and all the Migs were gone.... :? (I may have to stop doing recon, because there are obviously lurkers out there snatching up my finds).. :x

I picked up the Mitch Squitch Sabre today to go with my Chinese Mig15, even though I'm not a jet guy.. :wink:
