For a more modern air show, I'd include these.

Fighters

MiG-15
MiG-15bis
MiG-19
MiG-21
MiG-29S (Strictly air-to-air, with very limited unguided ground attack capabilities.)
Su-17
Su-22
Su-27
Su-33 (Just an SU-27 but with folding wings and used by the Navy. Kinda like a F-14 Tomcat or something similar.)

Bombers

Tu-95M
Tu-95KD (Fitted with air-to-ground missiles for better defense, and more modern avionics, etc.)
Tu-160 "Black Jack" (Like a Soviet B1 but with better range and payload. Also more reliable in maintenance.)
Tu-119 (A varient of the Tu-95 Bear, but only reached prototype stage with seeing if a strategic bomber could last when being powered by a nuclear reactor!)
Il-28

That's pretty much it involving Soviet planes. I'd throw in some odd balls here and there, but those would be my main attractions.

Default My fantasy airshow

10. MIG 29 FULCRUM
9. P-38 LIGHTING
8. A - 10 THUNDERBOLT
7. P-51 MUSTANG
6. F-14 TOMCAT
5. PANAVIA TORNADO
4. JAGUAR GR1
3. F/A 22 RAPTOR
2. B-17 FLYING FORTRESS
1. A-6 INTRUDER
My favorite planes of all-time pretty much in that order A-6 is the best I think I would have been a great A-6 pilot ... having your Co-pilot sitting side by side is a HUGE psychological advantage then to just being able to hear him one of my all-time favorite fighter plane movies is Flight of the Intruder..... flying tree- top @ night totally defensless to take out a bridge or SAM sight and then back again talking with your best friend ( i would assume since he is your co-pilot ) man what a RUSH !!!

Might visit my local aviation museum at Norwich Airport. Where else can you sip tea under the wing of a Vulcan bomber?

BAE or BAC Jaguar is prefered. The french screwed that plane bad since dassault bought out the french half of SEPECAT (Breguet) and then prefered there own Mirage F1 over the Jag. French Jaguars were thus shit compared to the british ones which had many updates. BAC bought the sole rights to the jaguar around the late '70s. Jaguar is a British plane!
