Another MiG-21 preserved inside the gate plus one preserved near MiG-23MF FP-85, were not read unfortunately. Also a MiG-15 or MiG-17 preserved just inside the gate and three MiG-21s on the dump were not checked. Security during the airshow was very tight, large cameras and binoculars were not allowed and pointing your pocket camera or telephone in the wrong direction meant trouble.
