 |
|
As there are some people who seem to be curious about the Cold War Air Museum's MiGs... a minor update. Got it started and taxied it today.
Gas to start MiG-23: $250
Crane to pull MiG out of the mud: $381.05
Teasing the driver for the next two weeks: Priceless!
( I was not the driver ) Despite being about 28 C000 lbs C the MiG-23 uses a pneumatic braking system that y'all would be COMPLETELY familiar with. Apparently they didn't fully charge the nitrogen system before going out for a spin.

Check list? Who needs check lists...as many on this list would say.
Humm...maybe a tech order and a check list might have prevented the
incident?
But what do I know I'm just an ol fart with a shrinking brain. I need all
the help I can get.
