World Flight Over Russia
Mig-29
The Mig-29 which the curious Americans have started to peer into and take pictures of has been promptly hauled away by the paranoid Russian ground crews. We found the farther east we traveled the less Gorbachev's reforms of perestroika and glasnost had taken effect. Deep in Siberia in the city of Yakutsk, built on permafrost that is extremely deep, the Mayor came by our boat hotel to pass out gifts and make contacts, but afterward he was headed the local cell meeting.
