My friend got a flight on an airplane as a gift. Who would give me a flight into space 🙂 According to the terms of the action, there could be two more people inside the Yak 18T. When he offered me, I just could not refuse this, not every day I fly on maize.
I will not write a lot (just a photo), because basically he had the feeling - he was sitting in front of the steering wheel and was flying the plane for 10 minutes. By the way, the flight itself lasted only 20 minutes. I sat in the back with ballast and looked around. According to his stories, this is similar to how to get behind the wheel of a car for the first time, only here, in addition to the horizontal plane, you also need to take into account the vertical position, as well as track the readings of many devices.
Such gifts are best done through coupon sites (Biglion, Groupon), thus, you can save up to 50% of the cost in the end.

Flight by plane Yak 18T
The most exciting moments are takeoff and landing. I also like them in regular Boeing, Silt and Airbus. Only the Yak 18T shakes much more strongly, like a frantic decrepit bus rushing along an old unrepaired road. Most likely, most of this is due to the earthen runway. Although the age of the devices was highly respected.

Straight real pilot
I'm happy
At a short shutter speed, the propeller does not seem to move
It is no less breathtaking during the roll of the plane, when from one side through the window you can see only the earth, and into the other only the sky. Unfortunately, our pilot did not want to make other figures, except for the U-turn..
Roll 15 degrees!
In general, we certainly liked the Yak 18T plane and liked the flight on it, rather unusual, but I personally choose paragliding 🙂 Why? Yes, because there sensations are more natural or something - you and the element of air around, without walls, motors and other things. Akin to a bird's flight ...

A small reference
The airfield was located near Kolomna. And there he is not really alone. Previously, there were 31 air clubs at the Myachikovo airfield, but later it was closed, and the clubs fled to their fields. Our airfield was located near the village of Selnikovo, and the passage to it was through some kind of dacha, most likely the owner of the club. It is very convenient, you live here and you work right there. In addition, in nature and in a measured rhythm.
Ferry to Dedinovo
Having learned that there is a ferry crossing nearby, we could not help but call on it. I have been living in Russia for so many years, but I have never seen a ferry. IN Istanbul faced, but we do not.
