I agree, but I'm getting a little dis-interested in seeing the same plane(s) over and over again ... couldn't they even have a mock up of some outrageous project designed to make the rest of the world crap it's pants, but wouldn't realistically get off the ground? You know, for old time's sake.

To be fair, the MiG-19 was interesting. Haven't seen one of those in a long time. And the 6 Su-27's in perfect formation dropping flares was cool.

Actually the MiG-29 9.13s were my favorite aircraft in that show- even though I love the Su-27SM more, the FULCRUM-C looks great, especially when it's paintjob is a bit old, giving it a sort of Star Wars X-Wing look.

We had a flying MiG-17 at the Toronto air show. The engine sounded like it was going to crap out and die at any moment, and on the passes where they used the afterburner I could see the flame sputtering. Not a reassuring sight.
