Heres one for the fans of Russian aviation.
The Mig 3... This aircraft had a reputation for terrible handling ....but was made in such large numbers that it became a classic.

I've always had a thing for Russian aircraft in spite of my stepsister (who served in the Israeli army during the Yom Kippur war), told me that Israel wasn't fond of anything Russian-made.  I knew someone else who told me that the KA-52 (one of my favorite helicopters), has a tendency to crash.

Oh, well, I'll always love you Mikoyan Gurevitch and Sukhoi!

Great shots eno, I got that one too, I personally think that model could use alittle more work. ::) ::)

I read somewhere that the Ka-50 had a tendency to launch the pilot into the helo's rotors when ever he pulled the ejection lever..............maybe thats how they invented sausage...... ::) ::) ;D ;D

The ground handling on this is a b*****d... Increase the throttle too much/fast and you end up going in circles. Loadsa Torque!!!  :o :o
