The MiG-15, 17 and 21 are now available to collectors of jet aircraft in good quantity at what seems to be very low prices. I have seen MiG-15's advertised for $35,000, 17's for $40,000 and 21's as low as $20,000.The reality is twofold: First, it is indeed possible to own and operate these aircraft as civilians.Second is that it takes BUCKETS of money to really do it right. The MiG-15/17 series will have you spend about $100,000 to get one safely flyable and the 21 will cost twice that.I know all of this for a fact, having had at one time in my hanger 4 MiG-21's (a PF, U, UM & US for those who care) as well as a series of MiG 15/17 aircraft. have seen MiG-15's advertised for $35,000, 17's for $40,000 and 21's as low as $20,000. The reality is twofold: First, it is indeed possible to own and operate these aircraft as civilians. Second is that it takes BUCKETS of money to really do it right.
