I covered this subject in the old forum and as it was all lost I thought I would resurrect it once again as most of the aircraft have now gone.

I will try and dig out some more details Ian

I remember them all at Seaforth docks. When I went to see them it felt like it was one of the coldest days the planet had ever experienced. It was blowing a gale and very very cold. Impressive sight, as in those days unless you had travelled on the continent you would never have seen so much Russian made hardware at the same time.
