Anyone recognize the quote in the title? haha

So I saw the post Daube had about the Mig-21 and thought I'd check it out. Thanks for the heads up by the way Daube!

I must have spent a good hour or more just trying to get the engine fired up, but once i did it was a blast to fly. A bit touchy, but thats no big deal. It also accelerates like a rocket! Anyways, here are some shots from my first flight.

i like the greenish color of the burner. it's a bit strange, in # 4 the plane look slimmer. i like the metal livery with the skrewheads.

In number three, is the black smudge the runway he just left before climbing into the crud?  Very nice effect.
