first mig behind the iron curtain

On March 5 1953 Polish Lt. Franciszek Jarecki flew from Slupsk (Polish Air Force Base) to Ronne Airfield at Bornholm Island in a MiG-15bis - a modern Soviet fighter. Western air specialists checked the aircraft and several days later, the MiG returned to Poland by ship. Jarecki, however, went to the United States, where he provided much important information about modern Soviet aircraft and air tactics. Between 1949 and 1956 four Polish MiGs and one Il-2M3 defected from communist Poland to Denmark and Sweden.
