MIG-29 Fulcrum - From The Pilots Seat: Any Aviators Dream!
Citat:Thomas Pedersen from Denmark is a young commercial airline pilot who dreamed about flying jets since his early childhood. Beside his present airliner training all the day, he uses his free time to study anything about jetfighter aircraft and still at the beginning he was certain about the flight capabilities of the MIG-29, NATO codename "Fulcrum". Now after years and years, he set up his dream to fly this jet to reality and we let it go to fasten him safe in the backseater's ejection seat of the MIG.
On June 24 2013 he stood infront of the object of his aviator's desires and crewed up the jetfighter with test pilot Sergey Kara. Up early it was clear that Thomas trained himself very well to get in touch with all of the flying systems of the MIG-29.
The flight that followed was a special flight and Sergey Kara gave to him early the controls. Following in the unique flight with rolls, curves and loopings what Thomas flown by himself after his pilot in command Sergey instructed him. During the flight Thomas reached 8,7G on the g-force indicator and Sergey always asked about how he is, and he told all the time: "I am feeling fine!"
Well done, young pilot. You've earned your fighter pilot wings very well and the flight hour in your flightbook with the MIG-29 is looking very good!
This video is an example, what a professional pilot (who isn't a jet or fighter pilot) can fly with this marvellous aircraft during a 45 minute ride. It's a "dream coming true mission" for any aviator!

Јеси ти уопште пратио шта се дешавало са нашим авионима? Како да их не черупаш са авиона када немаш довољно делова? Па онда нису имали гуме, пиропатроне, сада акумулаторе. А тек замисли шта им је још све фалило....
