Also check out this great guide! There's a link to PDF in the end with working pictures. "This document covers the sharing of data in the Kamov Ka-50 with a focus on the transmission and reception from the A-10C." http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=86752&highlight=ka-50+a-10c+data

Propably a sum of things but it's not the only overrun lately for the aircraft type: http://avherald.com/h?article=45ad34b5&opt=0

Stories from Iranian Tomcat pilots. Part 1/3

Yes it's a tire and the only photos where I see an engine, the blades look intact. Nothing of the debris looks like fan blades.

According to avherald and ASN 5 people have been killed. Diveplane, what makes you think of fan blades? I see nothing of that kind.

I don't think the dynamic rollover is due to the design of the helicopter but rather the surface modeling in the sim. If there's enough friction between the gear and ground or somekind of obstacle to prevent movement in the direction of roll, it should happen to any helicopter.

The remark says "21 white preparation for the night flight to the bombing ranges" right under the photo. They propably have very large stockpiles of weapons that are aging. Also in this vid they explain that blowing up old ordnance will be stopped and they will rather be used for real or disassembled. Propably doesn't have anything to do with air force though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnR2fCHYXEc

"Soft" helicopter crash into the sea at Copacabana. http://oglobo.globo.com/videos/t/todos-os-videos/v/catalogo/2319024

This is normal due to the dissymmetry of lift. A little right rudder is also needed. It's even more pronounced on helicopters with conventional tail rotor as on the coaxial the rotors cancel each other for most of the part. EDIT: Damnit.

Yeah I've heard that there are more cameras on Russian dashboards than navigators. When you watch the videos from their roads, it's quite obvious why. I've never feared for my life like on Russian roads... You can find hours and hours of crash compilations on Youtube. Just search something like "Russian crashes". Crazy vid indeed.

I hope ED will use their authority to make sure the products represent their real world counterparts as closely as possible. I understand that other things are more vital during the beta but we don't want some fantasy chopper in the final. Not in DCS. Thank you for the update! I don't mind the delay as nothing new in aviation industry comes on budget or on time. I always add a few months to the dates given and enjoy pleasant surprises if they come on time.

Same happened in Finland this year. They tried to demolish the silos for several days. Someone even made a T-shirt.

NASA has many free and interesting looking e-books. Including the memoirs of Academician Boris Chertok about Russian space program. http://www.nasa.gov/connect/ebooks/index.html

What's that funny looking antenna on the tailboom?

Thanks! It's not anything secret but will have to find out if this is ok. Other methods would be appreciated too.

I have a training material PDF from work that I like to use sometimes for reference. It's about 1000 pages and of course not bookmarked by the authors. It's also secured/passworded so I can't do it in Adobe Acrobat. So is there any way I could create my own bookmarks for it in Acrobat or external software? Doesn't any software create overlay/external bookmarks that don't modify the original? I couldn't find anything on Google.

Funny comment on this photo. "What's really happening here? A cop is flying upside down, on the background a crewless Mi-8 is on the tip of a crane and in addition some corpse is hanging from the crane." http://russianplanes.net/id93855 http://russianplanes.net/id93874 http://russianplanes.net/id90303 http://russianplanes.net/id89481 http://www.airliners.net/photo/Russia---Air/Sukhoi-Su-35BM/2203891/L/&sid=d6c9f54a7cf55122d067d1d2913a74a4 http://www.airliners.net/photo/Ukraine---Air/Sukhoi-Su-24MR/2203692/L/&sid=d6c9f54a7cf55122d067d1d2913a74a4 1000 posts yay!
