    New Private MiG29 First Flight

    Historic Flight Foundation ran the first flight of their MiG-29UB (N29UB) today under some sadly overcast skies. Flight went as planned and she landed safely at Paine PAE after leaving Arlington AWO 20 minutes earlier.

    nice! where is the airplane based, KPAE? also, where did it come from? looks a lot like Polish Air Force colors to me. definitely my fav airplane on the planet glad there's one preserved here in the states!!
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".
