As an American, I think the Russians built some great planes. The landing gear design, and the sweep-wings are my favorite. I hope that some day the US and Russia can coexist peacefully.
F22raptor is the best airport in the world

Rest in peace Mig-23 Flogger. So sad! Too many warbirds crashing lately. Glad the pilots survived.
I can’t believe someone bought one of these and keeps it in flying condition. Crazy!
Such a weird plane to own.
They need to paint a red star on it somehow.

I win the lottery💸💸💸 and I'm doing this for as many aircraft as possible
@@nickbayer7847 Amen, Even of I can’t fly them I want as many as possible to continue flying.
Thanks to the pilot for saving this plane! For several years, my comrades and I were on helicopter duty in an emergency situation at the airfield with these aircraft. A very loud and beautiful plane.

Is mig 23 still in use any where in the world?
@@gumarichard3791As of 2023, the MiG-23 is operated by the air forces of Angola, Cuba, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Kazakhstan, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, Syria and Zimbabwe.
She's looking so well maintained and clean, props to Dan for taking care of her so well. Unbelievable seeing a private Flogger in full airworthy condition.
Thanks dan :)
Yeah must be nice to have money...
Чёё?
She was a great looking plane, Dan!! I'm bummed she's no longer with us, but I'm glad you guys got out relatively unscathed. Fly Safe!
In 1983, over the Baltic Sea, one captain on a MiG-23m won a demonstrative battle over a pair of Swedish "Wiggens" near the aircraft carrier "Moscow". The captain skillfully used all the technical capabilities inherent in this aircraft to win a maneuverable air battle. I'm sorry, I can't remember the captain's last name, but I shook his manly hand in 1998. God grant that the pilots converge only for demonstrative air battles!
As a Russian, I am very pleased to see that you keep it in such good condition, thank you!
You should leave Russia and ask for asylum BEFORE they force you to go to war
@@Joefred77 I will not leave Russia because it is a good country and I love it.
@@maksshapovalov413 yup you are right. He should leave his country soon.
As an American, I wish for your wellbeing and hope that America and Russia can coexist peacefully some day soon.
@@Dan-qp1el ITS GIGA CHAD COMMENT
Im proud for your guys! Its still unbelivable that you guys in US have flying "23" instead of us, Russia.
Russia has sold most of their Mig-23s to Syria and North Korea!! I think they have hundreds of them
@John Johnson This is a great point, and would build relationships between both countries. Also, most AF pilots would probably relate to their Russian counterparts and geek out about aviation.
Is always crazy to see an American in a Soviet fighter. Beautiful bird
Летать на 23ем это конечно высший пилотаж! Пилоту респект!
It's great to see this Bulgarian Air Force Mig-23 still flying and in good condition keep up the good work. I wish my granddad was alive to see this bird still flying. He was stationed at Dobroslavtsi air base near the capital Sofia, where the last squadron was still flying it until it's deactivation in 2002 on the political orders of USA. So sad that the Bulgarian government put all the remaining perfectly flying planes on the runway and chop them on the runway for the americans to see and chear.
He was one of the engineers, that kept this plane flying, I remember when he was told that the base will be closed and the planes destroyed he was crying and left the air force but his tattoo of the Mig-23 on his right forearm was a proud reminder for him.
Damn that's f*ked
Hi it is not former Bulgarian but Czech air force.
It’s a Russian rust bucket that would go down very fast against a modern aircraft or against a Ukrainian farmer
@@chamade166 Its an old warrior same as F-4. It was once defender of our skies. So let it rest and dont write stupid shit. Peace.
@@chamade166 Ну пока что ВКС РФ ебут вас во все щели, на своих более новых "вёдрах"😉
Gutted this aircraft was lost yesterday. I'm glad the guys got out OK!
Some people's hot rods are Mustangs or Corvettes. These guys own MiG-23s.
What a life they have.
All you need is 💸
I got to ride in a MiG-29 M2 variant in 2010 from a friend in Russia I knew from Okinawa by her brother who was a pilot at the time. I had to take a physical to and it cost me 1500 with hotel two weeks stay and you get to fly much longer and the pilot checks in with you. I passed out only once. It was intense and I needed some help out the plane they were very worried but I walked down the ladder under my own power. Those little planes can pull insane G's. Bucket list item finally checked off.
Oh man that’s totally cool!!
Worth it.
@@ErikJohnston I felt like my eyes were gonna pop out of my head when he did the Cobra Manuever. Literally when you go from that speed to nearly a dead stop vertically, then the flat spin. The flat spin almost made me puke lol

RIP Flogger... and little miracle, nobody got hurt.
Damn man, I loved this aircraft so much. It was so stunning to see one in the United States, sadly it crashed and now it’s gone forever..
Spark with the lowest thrust-to-weight ratio and with the absence of an onboard radar station. An aircraft for training and practicing piloting techniques under the supervision of an instructor. My favorite modification is the MiG-23mld, a swallow in the air and with excellent weapons. Thanks to Dan for the excellent condition of the aircraft! In the capable hands of the MiG-23 is a strong aircraft. An aircraft for pilots with above-average training. MiG-23 fighter pilot of the USSR Air Defense Aviation.
Thank you from Russia. You save our history.
They dont want to save our history, they want to destroy and rewrite it.

@@grenzhochspannungshindernis Then why are you on this channel if you hate Americans so much?
Интересно видеть Миг-23 в частной коллекции, да и в таком хорошем состоянии. Вы большие молодцы! Мне доводилось общаться с пилотами служивших на нём. Вообще они хорошо охарактеризовали машину и говорили, что в своё время был вполне неплохой самолёт.
Мнения очень разнятся. Слышал от очень компетентных людей на нем летавших сплошной позитив об этой машине, но читал я только о потерях и неудобствах. Американцы писали о том как анализировали первые модели МиГ-23 по программе Give Doghnut и насколько сильно они были неудобны, но хвалили экспортные МиГ-21. В то же время старшие модели МиГ-23 должны быть лучше. Поди теперь узнай.
В любом случае МиГ-23 появился в начале 70-х, когда американцы завершали Ф-14 и Ф-15.

@@TheFaveteLinguis ну я больше доверяю пилотам. Потому как они технику щупали и наши орлы летать умеют. Хотя не спорю становление Миг-23 на крыло было тернистым и трудным. Но машину довели. И хотя новые tomcat F-14 и eagle F-15. И были в всём более совершенными самолётами. Но правда такова, что Мигу-23 удалось с ними повоевать и весьма неплохо учитывая, что он уступая во всем мог сбивать и сбивал их. Правда всё равно счёт не в пользу Мигов, но ничего удивительного, хотя в моделировании получались куда более высокие потери. Но не об этом. Надо понимать несколько вещей: 1)Любая страна ведет свою пропаганду и их техника всегда будет показана в лучшем свете. Поэтому верить статьям журналистам "экспертам" я бы не стал. 2) Военная техника это только инструмент и само по себе оно не может взять и победить противника, победить или нет в реальном бою зависит от массы случайных условий и умений пилота.
В конце концов первые версии Су-27 по сухим цифрам ТТХ во всем проигрывали F-15, но это не помешало нашим летчикам в сухую победить их в дуэлях. просто поищи бой на Су-27 против F-15 генерала Харчевского.

I remember a time when seeing one of these over your head meant everything you could think of went very wrong. Glad to see it meaning a lot of things went right.
Я русский! Спасибо тебе за сохранность нашей птички!
Он разбился. Нет его.
watching this after the crash makes it really sad
When i was very young i saw the cocpit of thid Mig 23 and it was like observe alien ship for me those days. It was a kind of "open doors day" when aircraft factory let any person to visitvthe plant and its production. The cockpit in this video is very different as a remember. This is one ofmy favourite, Star Wars like ship.
I always loved the 23
Just a beautiful piece of Soviet Cold War aviation
I remember when this bird was based in Sarasota, and actually had it fly over my house one afternoon. Had my back turned and the lawnmower running, and it still got my attention as it passed over head at perhaps 180 kts. The sound was was awesome!
Wow! First time I've seen a real MiG 23 in flight up close, amazing to see such an iconic aircraft in the air. I just love this channel!
Haven't seen Will in forever! Used to have a Mig-21 at KYIP and was super friendly.. Great dude :)
Yeah he’s awesome!!
I wondered why the Fishbed on his helmet
@@constancel4211
Will used to fly one
@@ErikJohnston - Miss having him on the airshow circuit and randomly seeing him fly around the area.
This aircraft crashed today, August 13, 2023, at the Thunder Over Michigan airshow, according to reports. Both aircrew ejected. Further information to come.
Pilots are safely recovered. Sounds like there are no injuries on the ground. I was there, and it went behind trees before I saw the smoke. From where we were, we didn't see the parachutes. I'm so glad to find out that they're OK. I didn't think they made it out for about an hour.
Darn I watch this plane presentation never thought of that will happen
This reminds me I need to work harder and get a new job. And win the lottery. What beautiful aircraft! It's also VERY rare to see a two-seat Flogger.
Прекрасный самолёт -много труда вложили что бы довести его до лётной готовности
Понимаете,уважаемый,я просто вне себя,от распирающего меня,негодования,по поводу наших,российских реалий,в подобном плане,сохранения технического наследия прошлых лет,в рабочем,действующем состоянии!Ведь это все,возможно!!!Но у нас,подобная техника,не только самолеты,сдана в металлолом,уничтожена,фактически,а вот этим,неугомонным американцам,взбрело в голову восстановить списанный МиГ-23,этот,зачем то!!!Я отвечу,зачем им это нужно!!!Затем,чтобы другие люди,могли любоваться полетом такой красивой птички,понимать,что это история авиации, ВВС СССР,вообще то!!!До слез,проняло,кадры полета этого моего,не побоюсь так сказать,любимого МиГ-23,рядом с которыми довелось служить два года,1980-82 годы,в АТБ Липецкого Авиацентра,наблюдая их,таких же красивых,тогда,в полете,провожая и встречая их,после возвращения с полигона Авиацентра!Службу свою,я помню,несмотря на прошедшие 40 лет,c той поры,хорошая,у меня была служба,интересная!!!

Fajny odcinek. W latach 90-91 byłem w wojsku, w jednostce JW2848 Slupsk-Redzikowo PL. Obsługiwałem te samoloty. Głównie tankowałem tlen do nich. Główny zawór tlenu był pod lewym skrzydłem. Mój dystrybutor tlenu to był AKZS-75M na podwoziu ZIL-131. Fajnie powspominać. Pozdrawiam z Polski.
Nice episode. In the years 90-91 I was in the army, in the JW2848 Slupsk-Redzikowo PL unit. I was servicing these planes. Mostly I was filling up with oxygen to them. The main oxygen valve was under the left wing. My oxygen distributor was AKZS-75M on the ZIL-131 chassis. It's fun to reminisce. Greetings from Poland.
МиГ-23УБ спарка!!!🙏😍👍 Спасибо!
Thank you for keeping this stunning piece of history flying!
Hey, guys. Great job. I had the privilege of operating this aircraft number 8107 and single seat 3303 as an avionics technician. The Mig 23 has been and will continue to be a matter of my heart. I wish you much success in your endeavors.
I was up close and personal with one in the early 90's. It had recently defected from an Arab airforce and was undergoing some technical evaluation.
The workmanship on it was realy bad. Countersunk rivits were all over the place, cracks in engine blades. Was very impressed by the main landing gear geometry, and how beafy they were.
С любовью из СССР.
How unutterably awesome. That is one of the coolest looking jets ever
😂😂😂
Спасибо товарищ) С любовью из России!
Awesome! And good to see Ward back in the air! I miss seeing him fly his 21 in Ypsilanti
Love it, I could almost smell the jet a fuel. Amigo, friendly reminder don't fly to close to Cuba they might think it's another one of theirs trying to get away. Great job 👍
That'd be scary getting locked on by a SAM.
That’s funny because I did fly near Cuba on a Victor airway in my L-39 a few yrs ago. They asked what type aircraft and then vectored my off the airway further away from Cuba!
Amazing to see someone put in the work to keep this beauty of aviation history, in such magnificent condition. I really wish more people would do this with war birds, cold war jets, and tanks from all eras. Unless they are kept in running condition, it's almost the same as having a picture. The full working model is so much more superior.
The design of the undercarriage is amazing. How the hell they got that to fold up into what seems almost too small a space!
Apparently designed by a woman that earned her the Lenin award.
It's PFM, my man.
Pure Fucking Magic.
@@Erated78 White liberals just discovered this and are making a movie about it. The womyn in question actually designed the Mig 21 non-delta prototype but was kept down by the socialist patriarchy, who stole her design and placed a delta wing on it. Then a rough design for the Mig 29 she drew on a napkin and left in the yoga changerooms was stolen by another aeronautical engineer. She was also bi, poly and liberated herself from children.

Brought back memories of ongoing cat-&-mouse standoffs between SAAF Mirage F1's & "Angolan" Mig 23's; South West African/Angolan Bush war, around late 1980's.

Just got to see a Mig-23 flying at Oshkosh, Wisconsin, today at the EAA Airventure. Super cool. Loud is for certain and definitely sleek with the fold wings.

Что там B-52, вот Ан-2, который ещё в 40-х создавался и до сих пор летает.
While in Cuba, when going to the airport, I spotted the mig-23 with number 810 on sides of the cockpit, it was parked on a concrete slab in front of a military college, really beautiful to see in person
"Strangle the parrot"! I haven't heard that in YEARS!
Absolutely fantastic!
I like the old good looking planes
AWESOME! Fascinating aircraft
If the MIG-23 were to be modernized with optoelectronic devices, modern radar and targeting radar with new weapons, it would still be an excellent aircraft today.
All MiG airplanes are beautiful!
Fantastic looking bird!
The MiG 23 is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever built. 👍
23 сложен для летчика, особенно старых модификаций. Так что эти парни смелые ребята:)
Одно дело его эксплуатировать в советской системе, где была наработана методическая база.
И совсем другое делать так как это делают они:)
So cool.. Swing wings are like pop up head lights on cars.. Its not new tech or current, but still look oh so good! 😎
Fantastic achievement to have this ‘23 in the air 👊🏼
P
Mig 23 is still the fastest single engine aircraft in the world.
Absolutely beautiful aircraft.
Haha, we used to about 20 years ago fly the foam 1/5 scale version of these for the tankers to shoot at...Also, they made a great R/C plane to have fun with...Not very manuevable, but cool to look at going thru the air...😊😊!!!
You guys NEED the RED star!!
What an honor to see this Soviet Fighter Legend taking off to the skies again 🥰
I'm from syria my cousin is a mig 23 pilot and so don't worry it still flies and carries out air strikes
What a beautiful jet👌
Beautiful bird!!!
So awesome! I wish I had the means to do something like this. I'd fly a F4 Phantom..

would love to see the landing aswell. What a fantastic plane :)

ITS SO BEAUTIFUL
Can't believe one of these is flying around in our airspace under private ownership. It's actually quite beautiful and a sinister looking machine at the same time. Love the swing wings. I can't even think about how much it must cost to maintain.
