    Photographer: Robert Nichols

    By June 2007

    Markings Applied: 346
    Marcin Rogowski comments (July 2019): At that time it was temporarily painted with s/n 346 for tv documentary about PPRO Jarecki who defected from Poland to island of Bornholm in MiG-15bis 346 c/n 133046. Because of these temporary markings the airframe is sometimes identified as Lim-2 c/n 1B 003-46, which never existed. Lim-2 batches were never larger than 30 planes. This c/n 1B 003-46 is common mistake circulating in the internet, I believe it was derived from incorrect assumption that 346 in which Jarecki defected was a Lim-2.
