Very nice, love the MiG and the Iskra, looking forward to seeing both in Poznan next month

[Wissam24]

Loving those last shots of the Iskra and MiG-15, but my heart lies with the Colts!

[Stagger2]

Very nice selection of shots here.
In shot 12. "Artur Kielak and his beast" the failure of his Centre of Gravity sensing boots could lead to a significant tragedy, especially with the elevators set down! Don't know about 'Iceman', maybe 'Diced-man' is more appropriate?
We protest about 'elf & safety' but this is an accident waiting for a knobheed to happen!

I was thinking the same, he could end up being Poles apart.

The rest are excellent

Thanks for your comments
Regarding Artur - He is very serious and reasonable pilot, so I believe he knows what he's doing. Anyway, great show!

I can't comment on the safety of standing on the cowling of a running aeroplane - but its a hell of a picture

Great set all round.
