-----------OLD VERSION! CHECK THE NEW ONE! LINK IN THE COMMENTS! -------------
Hi guys! This is my Mig-29, the legendary russian light fighter! It comes armed with 6 missiles, one for each type. It's a very good plane for dogfighting! I didn't put the full wing horizontal stabilizers beacuse the plane exploded with them, so I used normal ones. I didn't put flaps for the same reason :(
I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT ON THE UPLOADED VERSION THERE'S NO MACHINE GUN!

Instructions:
No special commands!
Use C to pass to the Virtual Cockpit view.
For takeoff, throttle at 100% (it takes off from the USS Tiny too), put it at 70% for a normal flight, be careful, the engines are really powerful. To land throttle at 30%-50%, approach and put it at 20% for final approach. Touch the ground with the back wheels, and brake.
Hope you enjoy! Have fun ;)

A bit of trivia:
The Mikoyan MiG-29 (Russian: ?????? ???-29; NATO reporting name: "Fulcrum") is a twin-engine jet fighter aircraft designed in the Soviet Union. Developed by the Mikoyan design bureau as an air superiority fighter during the 1970s, the MiG-29, along with the larger Sukhoi Su-27, was developed to counter new American fighters such as the McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle, and the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon.[6] The MiG-29 entered service with the Soviet Air Force in 1982. While originally oriented towards combat against any enemy aircraft, many MiG-29s have been furnished as multirole fighters capable of performing a number of different operations, and are commonly outfitted to use a range of air-to-surface armaments and precision munitions. The MiG-29 has been manufactured in several major variants, including the multirole Mikoyan MiG-29M and the navalised Mikoyan MiG-29K; the most advanced member of the family to date is the Mikoyan MiG-35. Later models frequently feature improved engines, glass cockpits with HOTAS-compatible flight controls, modern radar and IRST sensors, and considerably increased fuel capacity; some aircraft have also been equipped for aerial refuelling. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the militaries of a number of former Soviet republics have continued to operate the MiG-29, the largest of which is the Russian Air Force. The Russian Air Force wanted to upgrade its existing fleet to the modernised MiG-29SMT configuration, but financial difficulties have limited deliveries. The MiG-29 has also been a popular export aircraft; more than 30 nations either operate or have operated the aircraft to date, India being one of the largest export operators of the type. As of 2013, the MiG-29 is in production by Mikoyan, a subsidiary of United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) since 2006.
