I am disqualified as I immediately went and looked at the Museums exhibits after you posted the board. Never heard of that museum - Some really awesome exhibits, hope you had an amazing visit!

Its a nice air museum for sure. Interestingly they have a few artifacts from the Goodyear company (being in rubber country) which are pretty cool

They also encourage the grown up kids to take a seat in the Huey Cobra - amazing how small it actually is

Well worth a quick stop over if you're ever in the Akron area of Ohio

Mig 15 has two wing fences whereas the Mig 17 has three.

Thanks for that info, it seems like the only real external difference between the MiG-15 and MiG-17. I never realized that the two aircraft were so close in design!

Wazzit with a difference .. the name / registration and even c/n is known.
What is not known is who the manufacturer was.
14 of these microlights were registered on the SA Register during the early 80's so its not a one off
The remains of Grasshopper Microlight ZS-UWF c/n 37 at Krugersdorp Airfield FAKR
