Mig-15_real or model?

[pilot07]

That's just weird seeing a MiG with Red Bull on it.

have u ever heard of the red bull airforce..... there is lots of planes that say red bull on the side......

 

[pilot07]

more....

Isn't there one on EP4? Not stopping you from making one available for others though...you could do it justice I know.

hmmmm....might look into doing that. lol...once I get some of these others finished up. crossin my fingers for getting DE and AC3D for christmas

I bet you'll soon find yourself with $200 extra that you'll need to find something to spend it on

lol....yeah, I'm having a hard time deciding between programs to finish models or G4 so that I can use the Wildcatfish that dhk did up. I want to fly it every time I see the pictures of it, but at the same time, I'd like to get the spruce goose, Kingfisher and ME-109W finished as well. I'm stuck!!

 

[pilot07]

well if uve got 325$ layin around......... (after rebate)

 

[Cowboy]

What does everybody think, enough detail on this schematic to make a nice Mig 15 for G3, G4?

 

[WingDude]

Yeah it would be cool if one wasn't already made.

 

[Cowboy]

there's a detailed scale mig 15 already? where?

 

[rjmanzuk]

Try these for starters ...

Well, you might try Expansion Pack 4 for starters, and if that doesn't satisfy your insatiable thirst for Mig-15s, then you might want to give these a try.

And, if you join me for an alumni meeting at Nellis AFB (NV) sometime, I'll take you over to the "petting zoo" so you can meet one up close and personal.

Don't know if the tailstrike is real or not but it's a MiG-17 Fresco, not a MiG-15 Fagot!

It's now owned by Will Ward. Check out his website at http://www.velocedge.com/mig/

Did I miss something here guys?

I didn't see him being a jerk ( terse, possibly ) unless I misunderstood, or didn't go through the entire thread.

The plane is actually called a "Fagot" in case someone took that to be that he was being some kind of jerk name calling....

Or was this not what made his post come across wrong?

 

[pplace]

I'll admit I did "read and take it wrong"........even though he probably should have read through the thread to realize both points of his post had already been brought up. (if he was interested enough to register and join the forums to make that first post....I would have assumed he read through that entire thread)

I'll remove my above post as I did take it in the wrong way.

Way too hilarious.

No Reggie, not everyone fails at spelling like you.
In this instance the spelling is correct.
If there was an extra G in there, then it would have been a completely different story.

Unfortunately for your age group, kids tend to react on emotions rather than logical reasoning. You'll get it in a couple more years, keep trying...

 

[jeffpn]

If there were an extra G in the word, it may have been referring to 'a bundle of sticks.' C'mon, I learned that way back in the 6th grade. (Although I admit that wasn't the first definition of that word that I knew.)

 

[phrank]

Sure, like a pack of cigs.

Or a built-up balsa mig, there's a bundle of sticks in that.

Would be cool to see the double seater Mig though.

Don't blame yourself! Blame the MTV and this new generation of rotton kids.

Not yet convinced...

A lot of us added the third fence to the 15s once the 17 proved the merit outweighed the penalties. Here's a really recent -15 that flew at Reno this year. Count the fences.

I hate to persist, seeing as you're obviously an expert, but that Red Bull plane is a Mig-17 as well. That's what Red Bull flies. (Seen it perform at Miramar.) Also, there's alot more than just the 3rd fence on the wing indicating it's a -17: the wing tip shapes, and the probes at the leading edge of both wing tips, for example. I've never seen or heard of anyone adding a 3rd fence to a -15. Perhaps the -17 used it due to the higher wing sweep it has?

Two fences... three fences... Mig 15... Mig17... who cares. I got the answer wrong... WRONG MIND YOU!!!! I'm sooooo distraught.
