Nice angle!
The '21 is one of my all-time faves - one of the best examples of that ironic blend of sheer beauty and deadly business (for its era).

Thanks! It is an icon of its times. It's a pitty, none of them is in a flying condition in Poland. In a few years Romanian will be grounded too.

Too bad! I imagine that these jets of the 60s and 70s are very expensive to keep in flying.

Indeed. There are problems with spare parts, and maitenace, but some private investors think of bringing same old planes alive.

Sure is different from what it looked like in the 50s.

Times changes, even old must be repainted (and upgraded)

I like MiG-21, but for me MiG-15 an MiG-29 are more interesting. However there is some kind of beauty in almost all old planes.

The shape of Su-25 is more classic than latter products like SU-27 or MiG-29 (and their ancestors). Unfortunatelly I do not have any good photo of SU-25, but I hope that some day I will be able to do it.

Dzięki. To już rzadkość zobaczyć go z bliska i w ruchu.
