Very cool photo John, perfect time of day.

[Joe Copalman]

Awesome shot, John.  Is the plan still to repaint this in its original Moldovan AF markings?

[John B.]

Thanks, Harvey!  It was unusual in that it was cool outside and had just rained as well.  It didn't feel like summer this morning!

The MiG-29 isn't up for repaint just yet, Joe.  It is out in Resto for a quick cleaning as some TV crew wants to film it for something.

[Joe Copalman]

Such an Eastern Bloc-tease.

Does the PASM plan on bringing over a C-5 at any point in the future?

It will eventually happen.  I couldn't say when, but we will eventually have one here on display.

Very nice group of shots John. The BUFF really photographs well under those lights with its new paint,
