MiG 17 Formation Flight With Randy Ball Airshow

Randy Ball takes us for a formation airshow flight in his MiG 17. Bill Culberson flies his MiG 17 in the number 2 position in this flight. Notice how quick Bill is to respond to Randy's control inputs!!

    big respect to owners and pilots that you are still keeping this art of history and beauty. The antena looks like vertical fin :)

    MIG-17 is actually one of the best jet warbirds to operate. Cheap as dirt to buy and cost very little to operate besides fuel cost. It is probably also the most affordable jet with a burner on the market.

    Amazing footage. Felt like being in the cockpit. The acceleration when they went into burner was wild!

    Sensational! I'd love to see a MiG 15 or MiG 17 at an airshow in Australia. Don't know if we have any flying here. I know there was a MiG 15 being restored at a small airfield near my town a few years back.

    Very very nice. Some camera angles made it look like "all wing, no jet". Not a bad thing though.

    I hear ya, I have to set the GoPro’s on Super side to get the whole fuselage. That gets a lot of the wing as well
