Hello Semmern, I've visited the museum, not seen the Polikarpovs though, I'll go down there and get some photos. I went to do battle with 5 of those fat little planes, with an Fw190A3, thought I'd waste them :-) was I in for a surprise !
couldn't get the little bastards off my tail !!
Aparently the I-16 was the first fighter to have a retractible under-carriage. ...hand-cranked :-) ------------------
