I was sitting in church today and had on my flight jacket with a Yak-52 patch when a gentleman introduced himself to me. He lives in my town and owns a MiG-21 which is for sale. Just passing along the info in case anyone of you know someone with a lot of money and time on their hands and an aviation itch that needs scratching.

Best regards and hope to see you soon,
Paul
