HFF’s Ukrainian Mig-29: The Untold, True Story

HFF founder John Sessions will recall the saga of one of the first Mach 2-plus jet fighters acquired, restored, and flown by civilians. The successful outcome required three Ukrainian defense ministers, a Hong Kong judge, a federal lawsuit against the world’s largest shipper, a partnership with the late Paul Allen, and component acquisition from places like Serbia and Croatia. It’s non-fiction, but few novels match this plot. Tickets available through Eventbrite.
