Let’s also hope that they inform prospective purchasers of the correct location of the 3. They will be driving round Leicestershire for a long time looking for Cranwell.

Given it was a Lithuanian vehicle I would guess to Termikas AB at Pociunai. They are a well-known Yak overhaul company.

No, all the MiG-23s have gone from Dobroslavci.

Thirty-two MiG-23s were stored in two lines on the ramp following the withdrawal of the type in late 2002. Only eleven MiG-23s remained in 2007 of which MiG-23MF 647, 649 and 675, MiG-23MLD 203, 205, 211, 217, and MiG-23UB 27 and 30 all went to Borger, Texas. Further MiG-23UB 32 and 33 (both l/n Mar08) left sometime between May 2009 and May 2010, fate unknown.
The others were scrapped during spring 2007 having been dragged out onto the runway, being MiG-23UB 022, MiG-23MF 665, 666 and 671, MiG-23MLA 065, 866, 872 and 875 and MiG-23MLD 212, 215, 300, 301, 302, 305, 308, 385, 386, 389, 391, 392 and 395.

All that remains are the preserved Il1-4 and MiG-19. A MiG-21 sits in a compound in the village.

Mauritanian Tucano: http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6869468&nseq=0

Anyone knows how many they operate?

I don’t think they have any as yet. This one is ex French Air Force, with Aeromecanic at Marseille Airport. Two other Tucanos still in French colours are also present, maybe they will also go to Mauritania.
