this is bizarre. What private citizen in the US has the money to pay for this, the connections to get it shipped, the technical know-how to reassemble a MiG-29, and the facilities to operate and maintain it?

My best guess is that it was acquired either by a government agency or someone like Larry Ellison.

Wow! Do you not know the American aviation community. Hie thee to Plant City, Florida for the Sun-N-Fun flyin Going on NOW!) or go to Oshkosh.

Ask around and see how little time it will take to find whatever level of expertise and/or experience you want.
