This is an Aero S-106 actually, the Czechoslovakian variant of the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21F-13. Never entered service in Hungary, arrived to Kecskemet, Hungary in 1988, then to Vecses, Alsonemedi and finally to Tokol (LHTL). Sorry for the backlit photograph, there was no opportunity to take it from another angle. Days later my efforts to find the owner of the park – enabling me to enter and take better shots of this great collection – was finally successful, but he told me to return with my photo request in August, when he would not be so busy, and then we'll make that trip. He passed away in a tragic aviation crash later that month, May 28 near Kisapostag. This is why this short block taken in Dunavarsany is dedicated for Mr. Zoltan Komocsi, founder and late owner of the Komo-Sky Team.
