You should adjust the direction of flare ejection. The MiG-29 is shooting the flares upward and not downward. So the flares are falling behind the jet engine exhausts and cover them.

here are the lines:

[Flare_Station1]
SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
EjectPosition= -1.669,-2.648,0.707
EjectVelocity= 0.0,-1.0,15.0
NumFlare=120

[Flare_Station2]
SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
EjectPosition= 1.675,-2.648,0.707
EjectVelocity= 0.0,1.0,15.0
NumFlare=120

and so it looks in game:

Its not really a MiG, its a S-105, the czech licence version of the MiG-19S. 104 planes were built. Some say all were used by the czechoslovakians, but others say, that some S-105 were sold to Egypt. The S-105 were of better quality than the soviet original planes. It was used between 1958 and 1972 by the Czechoslovakian Air Force.

BTW the MiG-19 was called "Warzenschwein" (Warthog) by the East Germans.

In early 1991 12 MiG-23ML of the former Jagdfliegergeschwader 9, based at Peenemünde, were ferried by former east german pilots to Ramstein AFB. It was the last flight of german MiG-23s. The planes were a present of Germany to the USAF for the preparation of the Gulf War. The 12 MiG-23ML were shipped to the USA and were used their at Nellis AFB as part of the Aggressor Force of the Red Flag exercises. Before the USAF got the german MiG-23ML the Aggressor pilots called the 23 as a bad plane. After flying the MiG-23ML nobody of them called the Flogger as a bad plane anymore.
