Now, before you judge the condition of my plane, keep in mind this is after I tried the new dogfighting tactic of cutting off the opponents wing with my rudder...

 

Plus side, I won.

 

Landing with only my nose gear, no rudder, and having to hold the stick at 3/4 deflection to fly semi straight with stabilizing autopilot on was interesting.

 

But I brought it down in one piece! well the piece that I was left attached to anyway.

Actually the rudder is still there - just the rest of the vertical stabiliser isn't!

I see there are no emergency vehicles deployed for your Mig there, possibly because they are trying to resuscitate your aircraft mechanic who watched the landing happen :D

 

Great job on the landing, the Mig-21 is just an entertaining bird to fly overall it can take a bit of a rough up quite well.

I would be impressed if the rudder still works though! :joystick:

Unfortunately it didn't. I was sure wishing it did though because it was really hard to land that thing when it would suddenly start yawing back and forth all over the place if you made the wrong move with the stick.
