US Navy Blue Angel Jet For Sale - Sorry No Foreign Bidders!

"Comes with extras including bomb racks, drop tanks and pylons"

 

This was the lead story on the local news because the broker who put up the auction is from this area. The reporters went in right after FBI agents had paid the fellow a visit. They said they were investigating for "fraud". The auction seems to be legit, and the broker has picked up some other business because of all the media coverage. He just closed a deal on a Mig.

 

Yeah, I posted about it earlier.

They also have some Mig-29's, a Huey & other stuff for sale & say they'll have an F-16 soon.

 

So how come no one here has placed a bid yet.

 

Wow, maybe we can all chip in for a "Steve Hoffman Flyer"!

That's the highest hit count I've ever seen on eBay!

 

Too bad it's not in stunning condition.

 

Whaddya mean no Canadian shipping!?!?

 

The guy takes PayPal D), but note this:

That could get kinda expensive. Hopefully they will pack the plane well.

 

That MiG sure is expensive... in 1991, you could probably get one at a Russian AFB in East Germany for one-tenth of that

MiG should be the correct spelling, 'cause the M and the G stand for the original design engineers' names, and the i is just an "and"
