Reminds me of the year I spent one month at Cairo West Air Base during Exercise White Star '83. The mid-field area was full of partial MiGs and broke-back Antonovs, the Egyptians hadn't bothered to clean up after the Israeli's came to visit.
Awesome pic there! Put this pic in a post too. I have absolutely no idea if these planes worked before the Allied invasion or whether they've been totally unservicable for years? Any ideas? Thanks for posting!
"If you've got to resist, your chances of being hurt are less the more lethal your weapon. If that were my wife, would I want her to have a .38 Special in her hand? Yeah." - Dr. Arthur Kellermann, Health Magazine (March/April 1994) p 61
