Oh that is nice; just you and the panorama of mountains and the mist.
I have a Stearman screenshot somewhere that gives that Feeling of Flight, I'll dig it out.

[Splitpin]

The MiG 15bis, the last production model of the MiG 15, flies well, but I would be more happy about the two-seater and especially the MiG 17, which was very popular with our pilots. It remained in the air defense forces of the GDR for a long time, even when the MiG 21 was already available - in the early 1970s our aircraft were converted into fighter-bombers in Poland. She was eventually sold to Angola and was used in the Angolan civil war. We then used the MiG 23BN, which had a high accident rate during low-level flights. They were actually supposed to be sold, but nobody wanted them. The last fighter-bomber before 1989 was the swing-wing Sukhoi Su 22, which was popular.
