Are you one of these people who post comments on You Tube – I think you should keep posting…… its making me laugh anyway…:D

This chap never gets it. A-300 is simply a re-invention of long time banned user ‘Flogger’.

He has been at it for years. He gets banned and simply re-appears with a different user name. He believes that nobody notices! 🙂

Do a search for user names Flogger, MiG-23MLD, Milmascaras, Kiwinopal, Cessna. They are all the same chap repeating ad-nauseum the same line. You can end up going round and round in circles with him.

Thanks chaps. It was an amazing pass! I managed to get a nose shot as the Buchon whizzed past.

A-300,

Flogger, (Kiwinopal)

Are you back yet again? Isn’t it just getting a bit boring now? How many more re-inventions will you go through after being rumbled and banned?

Username Cessna was your last attempt, I believe?

What happened to the MiG-25s which were dug out from underground in the Iraqi desert in 2003? I know that some captured ‘war booty’ Mirage F1s were sent back to the USA, presumably for Museums or collectors – but the FOXBAT?

One of the Iraqi MiG-25s was noted a few years ago undergoing restoration for the USAF National Museum.

Hi TEEJ thanks for linking to my photo on Flickr :):):)

No problem, Gaz. 🙂

Yugoslavia also supplied a Yak-23 to the US. (Defection from Romania). No doubt it helped foster good relations with the west?

Yugoslavia came close to purchasing the Gnat. Some examples were evaluated.
