WSK-Mielec Fresco-C taxiing by at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2024 for its display. This aircraft was built in 1957 and is one of 477 produced in Poland between 1956-60. The original radio antenna mast by the starboard rear canopy frame is no longer fitted. The three wing fences, Syrena-2 button antenna, RV-2 Kristal radar altimeter antenna by the wheel well, ESKR-46 flare dispenser on the front starboard fin and extended airbrake are visible. The rudder can be deflected 25° to either side of the tail with a 4.26 m² surface area, slightly larger than that of the MiG-15.
