Couldn't believe it tower asked the arriving 737 to 'move over' to allow a 'MiG 15' behind, running short of fuel, to land first and bingo we get this amazing visitor popping in for a splash and dash apparently on a flight from Norway to Shannon ? First photo is a 100% crop on a hot day !!!!! Well it has a civilian registration .... ho hum ??

Thanks Andy ! It's not every day you get a 1952 'cold war jet' pop into your local !
