- The final flybys of MiG-23 'Flogger' 8107 at the 2023 Thunder Over Michigan airshow at Willow Run Airport in Belleville, MI.
This video contains footage from both the Saturday afternoon demonstration, the Sunday morning formation with two F-35Bs, and the final takeoff on Sunday afternoon. Sadly the aircraft crashed just seconds after the last flyby clip, but thankfully both crew were able to safely eject and no one on the ground was injured. The aircraft came down on a golf course and damaged some cars in a nearby parking lot.
We wish everyone involved a speedy and full recovery.

Sad to see such a beautiful bird go, but we should be very thankful those pilots made it out and no casualties occurred on the ground, keep in mind the MiG-23 was very close to hitting an apartment complex. It’s a miracle no casualties occurred from this.
We should all be happy there is one less mig in the world.
THIS... right here is the best part out of this event. Nobody, was hurt, which is a miracle in itself
I saw it happen, I was on the other side of the airport. Then we raced over to where it crashed and observed from the other side of the highway. And when I saw the flames I thought for sure the it hit the Building. The flames were so close. It is unbelievable how close the plane got.
always sad to see any aircraft crash butt... that plane is really ugly, nothing beautiful about it
true statement, but since the crash cause hasnt been determined i think he may have lost control due to being too slow, but if he didnt, he should have tried to ride it somewhere safer@@zachansen8293
It’s so sad that it crashed. It was such a rare plane.
They have another 4 airframes to build a second one
@@armoredspain7053should they though? I think we need to make that decision after we find out what happened
@armoredspain7053 true, but I'm worried about what the FAA is gonna do to them, especially if it's found that the crash was caused by a critical maintenance error.
@@mr.bombastic1173 i said another aircraft can be built, but never said by the same team
it was designed by Russians of course it crashed
I had the great pleasure of witnessing this rare MiG-23UB’s full demo on Saturday afternoon as well as the formation passes with the F-35Bs on Sunday morning. I’m glad to hear everyone in the air and on the ground is okay, but such a shame to lose such a rare aircraft.
Seeing it with the F-35s absolutely blew my mind. So happy I recorded a pass 😅
Блин, ну даже сейчас, Миг-23 смотрится великолепно!!)
A very sad loss, and a reminder of the risks involved, but I am grateful to the people who have the money, skills, and courage to keep old jets flying.
Money, sure. Courage? You're telling me if you had the money, you'd pass up on it lol?
@jeberg29 I'd love to have a go, wouldn't we all, but these old jets have an awful lot of critical components and some are lost every year. And this one was built by the Soviets.
so you are grateful to the EU countries that handed over old planes to Ukraine and the conflict dragged on ?
@@user-el5yw3fs4b Yes, of course, every step to throwing the invaders out of Ukraine helps.
Perhaps you need to put heavy weapons on Indian reservations - so that they can drive the invaders from the continent of North America . Or is it different ? Ahahahahahahaha@@TheophilusPWildbeest
So sad to see this plane go down. I stood right next to it and touched the fuselage of this plane. I even talked to one of the pilots. So glad they made it out before it crashed. i’m so glad i got to see this beautiful plane fly at Sun N’ Fun, something about it just really mesmerized me. R.I.P. Flogger One…
His name is Dan. He’s still recovering but he’s coming along.
For those wondering, there is more MiG-23 in the US. Hopefully this incident will result in a more mature maintenance procedures for the rest of the fleet, so we still can se them flying in the future.
How many?
@@DanielMaverick2211 (now 10) since this is the first loss of civilian MiG-23.
Hopefully Filer keeps ol mate out of the observer seat of the remaining 10.
A 1/72 model by MPC of a single seat FLOGGER-D was 1 of the 1st models I ever built, so sorry to hear this aircraft lost, thankfully no casualties.
I was at the morning show Sunday and got to see her fly. Such a beautiful aircraft, couldn't believe it happened when I found out 😢
Well, that sucks. Thanks for the footage!
Apparently there's 11 (now 10) civilian owned Mig-23's in America, making this bird pretty rare. Such a shame to lose vintage aircraft but glad no one including the pilots were injured or killed.
I'm actually surprised there's that many. I'd thought there was just like one or two.
В Казахстане довольно много таких старых самолётов МиГ-23 разных модификаций УБМ, СМ. Большинство их используют учебных условиях.
Прежде чем написать свой комментарий я читал предыдущие комментарии. Я не знаю английский язык, по этому пишу по русски. Сожалею что самолёт разбился. Система безопасности на таких старых самолётах сработала и спасла жизнь пилотам. Ф 35 не взлетает а животом воздух вспарывает. Это выглядит так смешно. Миг красавец. Жаль. Очень жаль. Но и очень приятно что в Америке любят военную технику из СССР. Спасибо.
Жаль конечно спарку.
Где он тут разбился? Чушь какую-то накалякал.
@@Paul_Siebert В этом видео нет. Посмотри другие видео про это авиашоу конкретно. Самому чушь нести не надо, когда не знаешь, дружок.
Мы Великие РУССКИЕ!!! Все, РУССКИЕ!!! самолеты, всегда были и есть лучшими в мире, это признанный факт во всем мире!!!
Не обкакайся от величия@@@user-zd3zm1zj5q
I was bummed at Oshkosh when it couldn't go up Saturday night, presumably because of the canopy issue on Friday. I was excited to see it fly but never got the chance to. As disappointing as it is to see this rare aircraft go down, I'm just glad that no one was hurt.
Ничего себе! У нас все порезали на металл, в Мичигане летающий экземпляр спарка. Красавец!
да уж давно не видел в воздухе ни МиГ-23, ни МиГ-27, ушедшая эпоха
@@ndru8507Да стоят Они на Базе хранения .Что Миг 23 штурмовик ,что Миг 25 .Около 40 штук .И это не считая музеев по России .Москва ,Казань ,Комсомольск на Амуре ,Новосибирск.
А какой красавец!!!! Вот оно СССР!!! Красивое время- красивые самолеты!!!!)))
кроме того как резать не на что не способны, кроме ученых конструкторов и производственников, все остальные бандиты и воры, все пустили под нож все заводы и фабрики. Обратили внимание как хорошо отрегулирован двигатель, ни грамма черного дыма и как легко взлетает, это и есть достижение Советской науки.
Самолёт скорей всего вывезен с восточной Германии. Но всё равно
его ведь обслуживать как - то надо. Молодцы.
Thanks to the American people for their respectful attitude to Soviet aircraft!
i'm just glad nobody got hurt. Machines can be replaced but lives cannot. Glad to know both ejection seats functioned as well.
Sorry for the loss of the aircraft. It was a beauty
Magnifique avion.
Je l'ai construit en maquette il y a longtemps....
The fomation flight with the two F-35Bs was very special.
Пусть небо станет навсегда голубым и мирным !!!!
Haven't seen for such a long time a Mig-23 in the air! My last time, I guess, it was at Airpower1997 from Czech-Airforce in Zeltweg(Austria).
What a rare and now likely final encounter for the F-35s
Thats an incredible bird. Shame to see it go. Glad the crew got out and no one on the ground was hurt.
Glad both Pilots are ok. I was standing at the Sand Bar on Bellville lakewhen it flew low over my head and they ejected. I untied my boat to rescue them but there a lot of boat already over there. Thankfully no one got hurt and Everyone ok!!
Where? I didn't see the Mig crashed.
None of those were pilots, they bought the MiG-23 from Bulgaria and played pilots. Almost killed a bunch of people in an apartment building.
Красивейший самолет. Очень нравится... СССР..
12:23 зверь
Very thankful I had the opportunity to take photos of such a rare and beautiful aircraft on Saturday. Sad to see it gone.
The best background footage yet. The last section of the Ford Willow Run B-24 bomber plant and the terminal. One B-24 every 55 minutes, made nearly half of WW II production, highest production rate of any plant. I walked in there on Hydra-Matic GM watch.
Я был механиком-двигателистом на этом самолете. 425 иап, 14-ая дивизия, 6-ая отдельная армия ПВО, Хаапсалу, Эстония. 88-89 гг.
И взлетя,проносились над Рохукюла !
Yurishamay bu uçağın motor itkisi çok kuvvetli olduğunu okumuştum. Teyit edermisin
Из-за чего он тогда упал?
Glad the crew are ok.
I saw the mig 23 at EAA when I was there it’s sad that I will never see that plane fly again but I’m glad that no one got hurt
All's well that ends well....thanks so much for sharing some beautiful footage of amazing aircraft...
Glad the pilots made it out alive.
красавец какой😃😍СССР❤👍
R.I.P. 8107 :(
R.I.P flogger ❤
Jeez, that was close - they nearly dropped that on an apartment block.
Этот самолёт опередил своё время, как о же он красавец да если с современной электроникой
The MiG-23 is a sexy looking bird!
As two-seat training plane, MiG23 ub/um is very rare jet fighter with variable wing. It’s so regrettable.
Mig-23 flying in formation with F-35s, good to see.
Even IAF was operating this soviet bird with swing-wings.
Rare single engine variable sweep combo
Its a bummer it went down. Glad no one was hurt. There's plenty more where that one came from.
Dear god the landing speed on that MiG is insane...
265 км/час
RIP MiG-23
The last time I saw flights this model Mig23, in Benghazi somewhere in 2004-2005. Thanks for video !👍
It was most wonderfull loss. Of just one airplane a MIG 23 and no loss of others or lives on the ground. When this unguided rocket, misstle, or bomb came down to the ground... Thank goodness for that, and that it had ejectlon seats for the onboard crew to use...
Wow. This fighter jet amazes me. I love it.
01:23...it is perfectly visible how the ridge under the tail mechanically turns when langing gear up moved in up position !👍
Glad everyone is okay, sad to see that happen to such a unique, cool, and rare plane in the US. Thankfully, Dan has 2-3 more Floggers.
Who has 2-3 more floggers? Like in the US or somewhere else? Are they under restoration or something? I know there’s one somewhere thats almost complete.
From my understanding, the company that owned Flogger-One has 2-3 more under restoration, that are almost airworthy@@Vice1-4
@@Vice1-4 The same guy that ejected out of this one has more of them, one is almost ready to fly.
@@mytmousemalibujeezus he better be grounded until the investigation is finished. i suspect hydraulic failure
He's not going to be hoping in another anytime soon. It's going to be a while with the FAA & NTSB anyways. He's a a retired Navy pilot, current commercial pilot and Desert Storm veteran. Those dudes are pretty squared away. He buys, sells, and flys old retired soviet jets as a side business. More than likely it was a loss of hydraulics or flight controls, otherwise he would have lined it up for the river before punching out to ensure it stays clear of the public. Thats not what happened, he certainly wouldn't have wanted it to go into a residential area lucky or not. Punch out and be able to explain it and hope for the best or ride it in and die with it.
Was really sad to see this icon go down last week... hope they'll find a way to build another!
Even after many years it is still amazing piece of engineering.
Glad both crew ejected safely. Very glad the crashed jet missed houses & people. Sad loss of an interesting plane.
Look at the tail section in the ground and airborne situation. A retractable extra tail structure.
Rip Mig 23
It's a real shame that this rare fighter is now, just a pile of burnt, and twisted materials, but, I'm glad that the pilot/owner, his back seater, and people on the ground weren't injured, or killed.
Excellent video, a beautiful machine!, nice to see also the f35s
Thanks to the experts on our Soviet history of the aviation industry, Thanks to the American guys, it’s a shame for the lost two-seat combat trainer, but the pilots are alive and that’s the main thing, Greetings from Russia
Glad they made it out ok.
Beautiful video of a magnificent jet 👍
Rip Mig-23
That mig is no more. I'm glad the two pilots were able to eject safety and nobody got killed.
saw it at oshkosh, so sad it ended…thank god the pilots are ok, and hopefully more stricter matience is put into the future mig 23s.
Are you sure it was a maintenance issue?
@@DblIre ive hear compressor issue and ive heard engine failure or flameout, but im not sure.
2:19 The sound of an approaching Flogger... I remember it very well as I used to spend days in the area where Polish Floggers would do training flights. I loved to watch and hear them. It was in the early '90s in the northern Poland. No other aircraft would make the same howling-jet noise, neither the Fishbed, nor the Fulcrum. Perhaps the Fitter would come close in the terms of "cool sound".
I watched erik johnsons detailed walk through video on this plane awhile back...what a shame to see it go down but at the same time...amazing that nobody got killed or lost their homes. The FAA already makes owning these old foreign warplanes or any old war bird very difficult and a hard process as does many of these alphabet letter gangs do for anyone and now they will probably make it even more difficult. Waiting to see what the cause of it end up being because the engine was still on when they ejected.
The cause of the accident was an engine failure.
So sad that this gem crashed, hope another one rises from its ashes like a Phoenix.
That Mig looks like it's in mint condition. Like it just came off the assembly line. What is the cause of the crash?
Beautiful.
We had the same in my country!😊
Absolute beauty.
So sad it crashed, at least the pilots and people on ground lived…
For every landing of this aircraft , it always reminds me the swedish gripen , it's not used other tools to stop , that's why it can land and take off from a short distance....
Beautiful 4 ship formation between Mig, F35s and dragonfly 👌
Mig 23 is unique and wonderful fighter jet thaks for its contribution and tireless endeavour to protect Indian Soil.
Наша история, по полету видно ,пилоты бережно относятся к нашему красавцу, спасибо
مشاء الله تبارك الله على طائر الميغ
Beautiful legend
Amazes me how Americans can keep things in such good condition. I’m surprised the Americans were able to keep this jet in working order to begin with.
Where did they get the parts from? Or are the parts custom made?
Зачем. Горбачев и его банда продают все и детали на случай войны. Весь запас продан.
MiG 23 ✊✊
Here we are a week on.... any statement from pilot or company as to what went wrong?
One of my best aircrafts. I fond of star wars aircrafts and this one reminds me them i dont know why.
Respect the 23 team!
Thank you 🙏 for all your service ☝️quick question 🙋♂️ what is the flag sign on tail stands for ? 🛫🛩️✈️
Sweet dreams and flying machines, in pieces on the ground.
What was that black square in the lower RH corner at 1:45 of this video?
❤
It was a matter of time before it would be written off...., R.I.P. "Flogger B".
Dang, that aircraft looks like an F-4 and F-111 had and unprotected fling after guzzling a few gallons of Stoli. 😅 It’s been theorized that it had a failure of the turbine drive shaft, disabling hydraulics and causing the crash. Apparently the 23 was known to have this issue. Might be a while until we know for sure. Glad the only casualty was the aircraft, as it could have been much worse.
Intakes are a direct copy of those on the F-4
What about the loss of personal property in the apartments parking lots? And compared to the F-4 Phantom, that Mig looks like a garbage truck!
You have to be kidding@@nashvillecop1
@@nashvillecop1 You might consider that is a bit harsh. It is just a different style than that which we here in the "Western World" are accustomed to may be all.
@@DumbledoreMcCracken Well, I wonder when this urban legend, actually perpetuated by the owner of this MiG, is going to die. No, the intakes are different, although the design looks similar.
Que máquina!! Viva a URSS!!!
I was sitting on my patio and heard the crash and my thoughts went to this before I even heard the news
I cant imagine the sickening feeling that pilot must have had knowing that jet may well have hit a building....Thank God it didnt.
Очень хорошая съёмка!
Hola soy fanático de los cazas rusos estuve en la fuerza Aérea gracias
Hola gracias por tu Replica Dios te bendiga 👍🌟🚀
love the Mig23
Been a rough few weeks lately in aviation
I got to see this live on the 12th was amazing show! Really hoping they dont cancel future shows
Насколько стабильно ведет себя самолет в воздухе, летит как ракета. А концепция вертикального взлета такая появилась сначала на Як-141.
Sad loss of such a cool aircraft.
I'm glad the crew punched out..
I was unfortunately there to see it crash, i’m still in disbelief
Wow😮
S0 beautiful ❤
