Photo Comment

The Swifts (Russian: Стрижи, romanized: Strizhi) is an aerobatic demonstration team of the Russian Air Force which was formed on 6 May 1991. The team performed at the Oulu International airshow with four MiG-29 (coded 43, 44, 46, 48) and two MiG-29UBs (coded 33, 34). Unfortunately, the c/n's of the MiGs remain unknown to me (anyone??). 48 is seen here during its landing after a late demonstration flight.
