golfsierra2 Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 This story is so bizarre, it's pobably true: A Russian movie company hires two Sukhoi pilots to film a couple of stunts. The pilots agree to take off without a canopy. Apparently following a plot-twist in the film, the back-seat pilot ejects from the aircraft while the front-seater keeps flying. The front-seater later claims he flew beyond Mach 2.0 ... with an open canopy! And then he says: "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." Crazy ? NUTS ! Source: http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/the-dewline/2009/07/crazy-ivans-or-what-russian-su.html kind regards, Raven....

Shez Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 That is an awesome picture! It like the ejection seat booster rocket has heated the airframe so hot it's blue. Hottest blue being right at the flames. Lol _:Windows 10 64 Bit, I7 3770 3.4Ghz, 16 Gigs Ram, GTX 960, TM Warthog, Track IR 5 w/Pro Clip:_
Vekkinho Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 Ejection was filmed on tarmac with crash test dummy pilot so it's kinda jibberish talk here... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
