History of the aircraft
The MiG-15UTI with serial number 242266 was built at Aero Vodochody under the licensed type designation CS-102 and fitted with an RD-45 engine.
It was deployed with the Polish Air Force as a trainer jet until 22 November 1990. During its service, it was also flown by the first Polish astronaut Mirosław Hermaszewski. The aircraft was conserved after the end of its military service.
In 1994, Mr Smith exported the MiG-15UTI to California, where it was based at the Paso Robles airport. It was featured at numerous air shows across the United States to the enjoyment of its fans.
In 2013, the aircraft returned to its “home skies” in the Czech Republic. The fuselage carries the number 2514 used by the Pursuit Bomber Air Regiment before 1982. It is differentiated by the tiger livery on the vertical stabiliser as a symbol of cooperation with the NATO Tigers Association.
