Russian pilots?

[Kane]

BTW, you want just to fly jet fighter or you want to be a Russian officer? if just to fly-http://www.bestrussiantour.com/jet_flights. Maybe after that you`ll realize, that DCS-it`s all you need :)

[Frosty]

who is that man

[Dell_Murrey-RUS]

In the future... if you become an officer the RF army - is your father! :D

[QuiGon]

It's Sergey Shoygu, General of the Army and current Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation. He's also a Hero of the Russian Federation ;)

[Frosty]

do you guys really think that if i write a letter to the RAF they would actually reply.

 

 

come on now..

[a1r]

You have Su-30SM in signutre, of course they will reply!:thumbup:

[Frosty]

Dear mr Russian man. Can I join?

2 Frosty

Go to the Russian embassy, and say: "I want to become a citizen of Russia." They'll tell you that it needs to do.

Иф ю а сумашедший,ю ду ит!

[Frosty]

What?

[flowers]

What?

Nickbolt believes that the first question to you in the Russian Embassy will be: "Are you crazy?" ;)

[Lemon Lime]

There's a russian joke:

'Is there a way to make every man happy?

'There are two ways, realistic one and fantastic one.

'-?

'First, if aliens fly to Earth and make everybody happy... that's the realistic one.

 

Nobody here can tell you if you can join Russian military flight school or not. Technically, you have to live in Russia for five years, then become a Russian citizen. All citizens, by law, have same rights, regardless of whether they born here or not, so you can try to join. But there are two difficulties.

 

First, you must be of age of 22. 19+5 = 24. But you may join Russian army as a soldier. Contract soldiers have advantage, they can join the school up to 27.

 

Second, 'have the right to try to join' does not mean 'join'. Every pilot has an access to top secret docs, and you have to get counter-intelligence service permission for that. For instance, foreign relatives are a barrier even for Russians. Not the strict barrier, some Russian officers have foreign relatives, but still the barrier. I'm not sure if you can convince counter-intelligence officer that it's a good idea to give you a permission. You may be a honest man, not a spy, but, just in case, they prefer to be overcautious.

 

By the way... Who said 'Su-27'? L-39 then Yak-130 then... Maybe MiG-29 or Su-24 or Su-25 of Tu-22... It's not a pilot's choice but his commanders'.

 

So, you have two ways. And I'd say letter to (not Minister of Defence, no) the President Putin is a realistic one.

 

But wait... There's a third way. Earn some money and buy a used Ukrainian Su-27. :)

Я еще не некропостер?Переводить лень,абитуриент же должен знать русский?У нас тут врачи с дипломом допуск к наркоте 2 месяца получают,в ментовку тоже проверки долгие.Ну и все же-я знаю наших психиатров.Как товарищу Фрости пройти медкомиссию? )))

[Frosty]

Translation ?

[OxDEADFA11]

Something like: "I hope I am not thread necromancer yet? I am too lazy to translate (enrollee need to know russian language, isn't he?). Here in Russia doctor can spend two mounts to get permissions to work with drugs (meant psycho drugs). Also there are long checks(examination) to work in the police. And I know our psychiatrists. So how do comrade Frosty can pass medical board?"
