Just popping in to share a few pics from my recent holiday in Italy - I went to the Rimini Air Museum (obviously, the highlight of my trip) and took shots of everything on display with wings... and rotors too.

Here are two sets of Migs.

Sorry about the total absence of info - boiling hot, bored 5-year-old at my side.... ;)

1 more set to come....

That first Mig-21 is a souvenir of the first Gulf War I reckon, the others are all ex-E.German kites... nice snaps Roger! It looks like you had excellent weather for the trip ;)

Rather "organic" positioning... they look like huge garden gnomes, in a way. ;D
Appreciate the effort, considering you were dealing with the kid... :P

I reckon not. The Iraq flag is Black, White, Red.

Looks more like an Iranan jet to me.
