RedTiger Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Weird, probably my poor understanding of physics here, but why wasn't his hand or arm injured from sticking it out the side? If you do this in a car going down the highway, palm out flat against the wind, you can feel the air press your hand back. Now imagine doing this at mach 2. :O

Now imagine doing this at mach 2. :O Those gloves he had must be a legacy of space walk testing... But anyway, I still find it hard to believe, there must be some propaganda there 'cause no canopy flight would probably create such turbulence in a cockpit that even hi subsonic speeds would rip the oxy mask off pilot's face...I once took a ride in a An-2 with fuselage door open, speed never exceeding 250km/h and didn't even think of sticking my hand out... Mirror wars, yeah I was trying to get my hands on a copy of this movie but still can't find it in any shops here in Croatia, so if you have any links to on-line orders with shipping to Croatia I'd be thankful...

nscode Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 I hear it's not worth the trouble (the movie) Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
Kuky Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 he said he only put his fingers for 1-2 inches outside the canopy. I'd assume it would have to be just behind the cockpit frame in which case there would be enough protection from the air pressure and minimal surface (hand) exposure. Keep in mind the air when it hits the front class it is actually deflected just after it passes it and creates low pressure just behind the cockpit frame.

Kuky Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Yeah, just take a look: ah yeah, check the bottom photo... the vertical stabilisers are all the way down.. not possible in real flight aye :) Maybe the pilot is really full of it :D PC specs: Windows 11 Home | Asus TUF Gaming B850-Plus WiFi | AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D + LC 360 AIO | MSI RTX 5090 LC 360 AIO | 55" Samsung Odyssey Gen 2 | 64GB PC5-48000 DDR5 | 1TB M2 SSD for OS | 2TB M2 SSD for DCS | NZXT C1000 Gold ATX 3.1 1000W | TM Cougar Throttle, Floor Mounted MongoosT-50 Grip on TM Cougar board, MFG Crosswind, Track IR
nscode Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Yes, the ejection took place on ground - no one denied that, but the flight was real (the speed I don't know). Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
sniffer Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 BTW. They made a lot of other mistakes... My favourite which I spotted is: - when on MAKS (probably MAKS) Korin with Kedrov stole plane and later arm with full payload after landing the rockets are gone (wonder where?!) :D - refuelling: before taking some fuel in plane was (helmets) 1st: Kedrov, 2nd Korin but later when goes defensive in plane was 1st Korin, 2nd Sokolov and the same was when they landed Strange ha? Nah - little producer mistakes ;-) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Vekkinho Posted August 15, 2009 Author Posted August 15, 2009 Judging by the details of what U guys revealed, Mirror wars script sounds pretty much like Chevaliers du Ciel...I mean stolen aircraft from the airshow etc... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sniffer Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Yes, exactly! Stolen aircraft shooting down Air Force One, but no! There is Air Force One escort which shot some AIM-120C which of course is evaded (Pugachev's cobra etc.) ;-) And the main hero wake up, bad guy ejecting (see above) and succesfully landed ;-) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
wickedpenguin Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 But honestly, do we really watch aviation movies - like Chevaliers du Ciel and Top Gun - for plot? No. It's for the aviation pr0n factor! :) And I don't mean the TG volleyball scene either! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
CE_Mikemonster Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 (edited) “The maximum speed I achieved on the jet plane without a canopy glass was around two times greater than speed of sound. While on this speed I even managed to pull out my fingers in glove for an inch or two outside - it became heated very fast because of immense friction force plane undergoes with the air.“ LMFAO.. Who's been smoking crack.. What's the term for when a plane tears apart under the forces applied on it? Catastrophic ripping apart of the wings and structure due to uneven loads etc.. Btw, at what altitude/speed does the MiG-29 reach Mach-2? We struggle to reach 95mph with the windows open in my car, if you catch my drift..
