Does anybody know why the MIG-31back seat have a flip up mirror.
My first thought is so he can see the Sidewinder coming up on his six.....either that or to touch up his makeup prior to landing
!. To see where he's been.
2. In case he wants back up.
The mirror is facing forward.
So the guy in the front seat can see what buttons the guy in back is pushing.
we're modelers it's what we do
It is a periscope, not a rear view mirror. So the backseater can see what they are going to crash into?
I learned on a you tube documentory that the back seater has a pop up joy stick to fly the a/c looking through the mirror system.
That is good to know, I would like to get the Hobbyboss 1/48 Mig 31. My first answer was maybe you installed it backwards, glad I wasn't a jerk
I have the AMK kit mig-31b/bs.I have'nt built it yet but it looks like a very nice kit.just doing a lot of research.
I saw the kit over in Seattle last month, almost bought it but I was trying to be very frugal. I hadn't realized what a HUGE plane that critter is, man the Russians liked 'em big.
