- The flight in a MIG-29 demands a lot. The jet is constantly moving in several axes and you can feel this constantly, especially when the G-forces have increased.
We flew adventurers who had a pilot's license and professional former jet pilots and active airline pilots; however, most of them sat in the cockpit without any flying experience of their own and without a pilot's license, except the experience they had as a passenger in commercial flights or smaller aeroplanes.
The physical condition of each individual always played a role among other factors on the day of the flight, and we made a point of preparing the customers for this adventure weeks in advance through several personal conversations so that they could get the best out of the costly adventure for themselves. In addition, we gave them the opportunity to talk to others who had previously experienced the adventure of their lives with us.
When active pilots flew with us, they often got the chance to steer the MIG-29 themselves, like Walter here from Switzerland. Andrei, his test pilot, gave him the opportunity to fly rolls and loops. So an extraordinary flight could be performed, although the weather below the clouds was not very cooperative.
Na Verdade os verdadeiros astronautas!!
owww... felling dizzy just to watch!!! nice video!!!
Reminds me of the TV sign offs in the 60s-70s and the poem “High Flight”....
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I’ve climbed and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds, - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,
I’ve chased the shouting wind along and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air . . .
Up, up the long, delirious burning blue
I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or ever eagle flew -
And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand and touched the face of God.
[High Flight by John Gillespie Magee, Jr.]
The poem is much older, because John Gillespie Maggee died in 1941 some months after he wrote that to his parent during a crash with another British military pilot.
