Wish I'd known about places like this when I was over there ...

If I did I may have been able to buy a few "kitset" aircraft in the corridors of GUM instead of just the officer's cap I ended up with?

Cheers,

Having been to Russia twicw, and asecently as May2006, I long ago reached the conclusion that Russian aircraft had the appearance of being built on the same production line as tractors!

Those 'abandoned' types look very much like they were the result of those "SALT" [Strategic Arms Limitation] talks between the former USSR an the USA.
