Thanks for posting Flanker. I think the pilot on take off was the same one that died in the Shuttle Columbia explosion.

 

Edit: OMG-was that Argentinian pilot grounded or what?

Russian Ministry of Defence planned to disband Strizhi and Russian Knights aerobatic display teams shortly. They final show will be at MAKS-2011. In the future an unnamed “national aerobatic team” (provisional designation “9 May”) will fly the nine Yak-130 training aircraft.

«…гнуть петли на боевых самолетах – это слишком дорого».

“Bending loops with combat aircraft — it is too expensive,” said Russian Defense Minister Anatoliy Serdyukov.

In the description he said €100. Probably about right too. It didn't fall so far. Those 450 sized choppers are not as expensive as they might have been 10-15 years ago. The FPV camera gear is probably the most expensive part on it. :D
