Mig 21 is definitely my favorite mig 🥰

would have preferred the engine roar to the cheesy music

0:21 engines roaring to full sounds like those engines about melt the plane behind it as the fishbed instantly rockets off the runway at supersonic speed. That sound legit gave me more chills than a Stuka siren. Even in enemy possession, that is a beautiful steel bird.

Nice video but why this damn music ? The sound of the engines would have been better... IMHO

The music makes it sound like he's intercepting the second wave of nuclear bombers and his aircraft is the only one not destroyed by the first one

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!!!! Finally a video that really shows what it looks like in the cockpit.....rear facing the front.All others are obsolete!!!!!!!BRAVO!!! LOVE THE MIG 21

Don't mind the KZfaq peanut gallery Steve, the people criticizing your flying are just jealous. I would have preferred without music, just the beautiful sound of the engine and the swooshing of the air through the tiny holes of the air duct. Held that nose nice and long after touchdown, good work man! The 21 is very close to my heart! ;-) Please contact me if you ever happen to fly her into Cody, WY, I would love to come and meet you both.

Beautiful video. Great montage. Looks like upgraded version. Thanks for posting!

the music ruined it! well done for that -___-

It's old, but it's definitely a smooth ride.

I'd do absolutely anything to get to fly or ride in a mig-21. Wish i had a bud that had one

MiG-21R :) one of the most badass recon-planes.

BEST VIDEO OF THE MIG-21!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful MiG 21

MiG 21 R number 2133 originally from the Czech military aircraft, now airworthy in the USA

Awesome video! I love the camera view so that you can see where the plane is going but also see what's going on in the cockpit. May I ask what video system you used in this? I love the Garmin radio stack amid the Russian green and all the Russian gauges. I installed a similar setup in a MiG-23UB earlier this year. I work on L-39s for a living so some of those gauges are very familiar. Surprising how similar the cockpits of the 21 and 23 are.

And one more thing. I am sure you know about that, but if not, you must not to continue inverted flight ot negative g longer than 20 sec. becouse of fuel system, which is not able to fill No.3 fuel tank in such conditions. :-) Have fun!! Great vids

Just so that you know, with most Soviet aircraft, the helmet is designed to be an integral part of the ejection system. So if I were to go thru the trouble of getting into a MiG, I would most defenitly go the extra few feet and get the helmet too :)

Very cool video, but shouldn't have any music.

Awesome video- I've watched it a few times- amazing, you must have a blast.

nice fast landing from cockpit

Looks like the stick si going to handle really tough on some high speed manueveres.

LOL amen brother! Couldn't agree more!

gran video , uno de los mejores que eh visto en cockpit !!!

What i need to do to fly in a Mig-21 like these?? Its a beautiful plane!! God!!! I think that i will never see this.

Thanks for the very interesting and detailed explanation scimitar415.Great video.

From the looks of it, took off out of Stead just outside of Reno Nevada.

the music is way too dramatic.

i think he convist me to bye a mig21 , i found one for 67000 dollars with 1920 hours year 1971.

Great video!!, thanks for posting!

That would be a MiG-21U, or something to that affect. Not a common aircraft so I'm thinking 100K may be a decent price, depending on the condition of the airframe and engine.

Czech Markings! One of our retired Mig-21s. It's kind of Irony to see 21 over US.

Those things are fucking rockets!

A no-music version, please!

Awesome video...

how come the f86 sarbe needed to be hooked to a machine to start the jet engine but the mig did not

2021 il Let them watch this in 2035

Hi Steve. Looks like you're having fun. Hope all is well. Still have the 21? John Bell

Czechoslovakia ❤

I like music

It is said that one has to be very careful not to roll the mig 21 too fast or one can lose control of it as it rolls so fast. What have you found about the mig 21 roll? BTW excellent video ! Thanks for sharing. :)

Also, die MiG-21 fliegt man aus dem Handgelenk! Wer dazu 2 Hände nimmt, hat entweder Verstärkerausfall oder keine Ahnung! :)

THAT IS YOU PRIVATE MIG???

Nice video. This plane served in Czech air force?

no shoot at the end

I would absolutely blame that on whoever maintains your jets, not the MiG-21. The MiG-21 is NOT known for its tendency to fall apart on it's own. It's known as an extremely durable and capable plane and I wouldn't be too ashamed to use them. As for investing in supermarkets instead of the military, typically supermarkets bring far more jobs and tax revenue to an area than newer fighters in the Air Force do. Once more people pay more taxes, then you can afford more fighters. Maybe not so dumb.

How many hours do you have in the MiG-21 to make that statement? Show me your video of you magically overcoming the known dig in issue in the 21!

Look...a Fouga Magistr there parked. Wow.

My country air force still uses this plane. beacuse we have stupid politicians who think army is not the the thing to be invested in instead they invest in supermarkets rather then army or industry. Anyway this is a great airplane, when it doesn't have tendency to fall apart in mid flight while flying 780kph ( yeah that shit happend once during a traning in our airforce )

What a lucky guy

Why is the inside of the cockpit blue is it because it's easy on the eyes and they can see the dials and stuff better

Reno Stead Airport... Fun times...

Why would one ruin a video with music when they have engine sounds?!

Does anybody know if Mr. Rosenberg flew in the service. I wonder if he's wearing an anti-g suite. I have no idea if it's required by law or not. I suppose it would be wise to wear on.

Really old technology

sorry :bout the music.........first video

Nice landing, ride'em cowboy!

yes i know mig 21 mast aproaching fast, i renember mig 21 from air base redzikowo near SŁUPSK in Poland maybe 7 kilometer away of my home. In poland 15-20 years before pilots no problem flying speed up sonicboom level on area of slupsk and other, if am a kid on easy slowly day on slupsk go with my friends on bikes and now BOOM! and i can't see plane! only big boom xD (maybe mig 23 i dont know). sorry for my english :) Best regards sonicboom is a normal +/- 15 - 25 years before.

amazing

Great plane :) Ołówek :P

How the heck did you even get that thing? And how do I get one? Just saying beforehand, I'll live in a box if that's what it takes to afford one.

Czech Air Force..

wow man.... thatz briliant o.O

awesome.

This guy is pretty unfamiliar with this aircraft. Missing a lot on the angle maneuvers. As long as he is having fun it's all good.

Czech livery.......nice

Nice , but original sound is as much important as the video itself . ❗❗❗

Czechoslovak marking? .. hm...

Where was this video shot? thanks

These aren't known as the most stable of aircraft; most good fighters aren't. The MiG-21 in my simulator even flies this way (sorry, that's the closest I will ever come to being a real fighter pilot although I do have some stick time in L-39s). So this roll was probably done as well as anyone else could do it in a MiG-21.

These can be had for less then 100k in fact I just saw one for sale for 80k in flying condition wish I had the money to fly it one flight of fuel must be about a grand? Sure have massive landing gear

and PLEASE PLEASE don't try to roll it as fast as it can to find out for me. ! BTW how many g's have you pulled? Again the SAME warning ! :)

Sweet !!

Did you have jettison the speed chute?And who retrieves it for you?

yea czech mig-21 :D nice video

Thank god everyone is a fighter pilot on youtube or else we would never know how to do a correct aileron roll. ;)

Can someone tell me the name of the music used in the video? Thank you.

nice flyng perfect i wish to be a fighter pilote i want contacting you . thanks .

I like the music what is that

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

赞！收藏了。

0:41 anybody know what plane that is on the left?

what's the name of the song?

Видеоряд классный, но обязательно нужно было гимн ютуба вставлять?!

what kind of plane is the one with the V tail @ 0:49 ?

It's easier to fly that way

Great vid, could have done without the music though but hey, whatever.

Could have done without the music.

0:43 Fouga CM. 170 ;-D

Czech :o

1:30 No! I can't believe you did this! You've ruined the video replacing THE MUSIC with this overused shit!

Aerobatics? ))) He can't even make a simple roll correctly (nose goes into the ground). But, it's still interesting watch. TY.

the US pilot? i see helmet of US made?

I know. If he really thinks we can't stand the sound of a jet engine in flight and must replace it with some mediocre soundtrack, at least he could use something original that's not on approximately 5,000 other KZfaq videos. Can you say "cliche"? The footage is great. The audio completely ruined it for me.

This would have been an excellent video if you kept the original audio of the aircraft itself. This cliched music, which everyone uses, makes me rate this video an F

Nice video but the music is definitely horrible, it doesn't match with the video.

Music is horrible.
