* A slow progressing project *
''Red 19' in a decrepit state back in August 2001. The aircraft was recognized even back then as being historically significant, having been flown by Yuri Gagarin during his cosmonaut training. The Cosmonaut Training Center always planned to restore 'Red 19', and it appears that, almost 14 years later, this has finally occurred. It has been placed on a plinth in Star City and was finally unveiled to the public on April 12, 2015.'

Gagarin crashed with another pilot in Mig-15UTI ( Red 18 ), also flew this Red 19 short time before the accident.
I'm not planning to finish this project very soon as being captured with other things, I opened it early for references collection.
