I was stationed at Yokota AB at the time and was chosen to fly with the C-5 to pickup the MIG. One little thing that I remember was how simple the Mig was constructed. A front wheel from a jeep was found to fit perfectly in place of the flat tires and wheels on the nose gear. I really enjoyed the article.

I still have the copy of "Mig Pilot" by John Barron that Viktor autographed for me. He was intelligent, interesting, and a good public speaker. I hope that where ever he is, that he is happy and well.Walkman82https://www.blogger.com/profile/06547239441206617506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544652274919432780.post-45313030683867276292016-09-11T14:00:44.448+08:002016-09-11T14:00:44.448+08:00Thank you for the tip.

There were also plenty of overt and covert military operations, some of which may still be awaiting declassification. Regardless, Cold War stories always make an interesting read!Supernovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00864419524992223122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4544652274919432780.post-87461569430429575972016-09-11T11:17:56.292+08:002016-09-11T11:17:56.292+08:00Thank you for the highly entertaining read!

Another cold war topic worth considering would be the time when the ROCAF went 'expedition'.. to YemenAnthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17756421356782526812noreply@blogger.com
