Looking for that special Christmas gift?
MIG 21 FISHBED FIGHTER JET
Straaljager is in prima staat , met alle orginele details , instrumenten en motor. Vliegen is alleen niet mogelijk omdat de hoofdstroomkabel is doorgeknipt.(internationale afspraken)
Reden omdat we dit vliegtuig verkopen is dat we gaan aanbouwen bij het bedrijf. Er is dan geen plaats meer voor dit toestel.
De Mig is afkomstig van de Poolse luchtmacht en is de afgelopen 2 jaar gebruikt als eyecatcher voor ons bedrijf in Den Bosch.
Levering geschiedt af werk, Den Bosch.
