Red!

Today’s on-this-day photo comes from 2006 and was taken at Ardmore.

It shows the MiG-21MF, “8008” sitting outside a hangar. I don’t believe this airframe ever flew in New Zealand. Certainly not too long after this was taken, it ended up mounted on the roof of a building in South Auckland.

The aircraft is silver with red star on the fin and a large red "8008" under the cockpit. The nose cone and top of fin are a dark green. It is sitting outside a hangar on a cloudy day.
