Mig-21 is not a stressed skin construction.....well it kind of is, but it's built using heavier and stiffer formers and spars which are much more self supporting.
Maybe a Hurricane or other fabric covered aircraft can be displayed that way, but a typical WWII all metal airframe is a monocoque (stressed skin) and would deffinately bend and wobble with no skin on.
