FUBAR Aviation MiG-17F / WSK-Mielec Lim-5 - Shuttleworth summer airshow 2026.

FUBAR Aviation's MiG-17F / Polish-built WSK-Mielec Lim-5.

Seen here at Shuttleworth summer airshow 2026.

 

Built in 1958, the airframe returned to flight on April 22, 2026, at Modlin Airport in Poland following an extensive restoration by FUBAR Aviation. It is currently the only flying MiG-17 family airframe in Europe and the only civilian-owned ex-military jet with an active afterburner in Poland.
