Who among us has not dreamed of being at the helm of a jet plane? However, the difficulty of selecting pilots of this class and associations with military pilots - these are the stereotypes that scare many lovers of a peaceful sky from this undertaking. And absolutely in vain. As it turned out, it is enough to have a standard pilot's license and a little desire to make such a dream come true. In any case, the author of the kudri fm video blog succeeded, and he was able to take to the skies on a real L-29 jet.
The secret is that this particular aircraft has a weight tolerance for a standard pilot's license. That is, everyone who has the usual permission to fly can sit at the helm. Yes, the aircraft is nominally considered combat, but was used exclusively as a training aircraft. But that's not all.
L-29 is capable of climbing above 8 kilometers. At the same time, it does not have outstanding speed characteristics - it will take a long time to get to the peak height. But kerosene takes about 1000 liters per hour of flight. You will find out other features of a jet aircraft and even how much it will cost to own such an apparatus by watching the review to the end.
