- Mark, from one Wingy Thingy nut job to a fellow TreadHead of the plastic craft, these new postings are awesome. Many thanks to you for getting 'em and to Mike for posting 'em. :smiley20:

- I am especially interested in the MiG-29. It is marked as the last MiG-29 that flew in East German diamond markings (to be Re-marked in West German cross markings) as Germany celebrated their Re-unification, or something like that. My question to you, was there any signage (besides the one pic you did get that covers the description of the general MiG-29) or some curator there that could confirm if this aircraft is, in fact, THEE commemorative aircraft? Or is it a replica paint scheme? (Yeah, I know this may be a lot to be asking a TreadHead, but ya gotta jump in at some point, :smiley8: Hee hee). :smiley4:

Ken,

I have to say no on getting you info. The photos were taken enroute to Phoenix and our stop at Nellis. I don't even remember what building it was parked in front of, just that it was close to the airplane monuments they have there. Terribly sorry about that.

We stopped at Nellis because the better half loves jets! The cool part was they had a good selection of armor out side the agressor area. If we ever do it again, I will try and make plans to get a tour of the inide fenced in area as well.
