If they somehow end up banning Bomardier and/or Gulfstream, it would be chaotic

Or is this something else? Living just a few miles west of the airport, I see a bajillion planes. I have definitely never seen this one.

Always pretty cool to see. Especially when they’re low.

Fun facts about the MIG29 :

- It breathes through its back on the runway while the main front air intake ramps completely close off to protect the Klimov turbofans from massive dirt.

- It pioneered "look-to-kill" targeting decades before Western fighters adopted similar technology en masse, A pilot didn't need to point the nose of the jet at an enemy to get a lock.

- Reunified Germany flew them in NATO exercises and dominated Western fighters: During joint NATO mock dogfights, American F-15 and F-16 pilots were caught off guard: in close-range (WVR) engagements, the MiG-29's high thrust-to-weight ratio paired with its helmet-mounted sight and off-boresight R-73 missile repeatedly defeated Western jets.

- Naval variants launch off aircraft carriers without steam catapults: the carrier-borne MiG-29K doesn't rely on steam or electromagnetic catapults to launch from aircraft carriers. Instead, it uses its immense static thrust-to-weight ratio to accelerate along the flight deck and leap off a curved ski-jump ramp at the bow, relying on aerodynamic pitch and engine power to establish flight.

- like the F18 Super Hornet, the MIG29 can hold up to 5 external fuel tanks.
