This thing isn't a bargain for $5 million dollars; the thing burns around 1,200 gallons an hour, (that is without afterburners) and with Jet A at around $5 dollars, that's $6,000 dollars an hour in fuel alone and that doesn't include aircraft maintenance. Plus, where are you going to get additional parts for this thing?
The first X-29 was taken aloft on 14 December 1984 from Edwards AFB with Grumman's Chief Test Pilot Chuck Sewell at the controls.[1] With that flight, the X-29 became the second jet-powered aircraft to fly with forward swept wings (with the Nazi Germany-era Junkers Ju 287, which first flew in 1944, being the first.
@RacerXGTO Если лицо или частная авиакомпания имеет деньги, он может купить что-нибудь, должно быть хорошо..........If a person or a private aviation company has money, they can buy anything, must be nice
@mauricioalfredo83 And yet Russia builds the PAK-FA to counter the F-22, a plane which according to you is crap. why would they go out of their way if we can't "build fighters" and make a direct counter to the F-22A? oh right, your sentence made no sense and made yourself look like an idiot.
Looks like your little fanboyism of a country just backfired, XD.
I have heard of an American organisation selling 2 SU-27's for th civillian market. I soooooo badly want a decent Soviet era jet fighter! $5m is a bargain!
To sum it up, imagine if i dont know, Japan sold F-15 to Russia. That would be horror for USAF because thats one of the best fighters over there. Anyway video is pretty cool and its always nice to see this bird flying :)
Reality about whole this deal.....Ukrainian goverment did this just to make Russians angry, Now ex-Ukrainian goverment was very west oriented and they knew Su-27 was Russian best fighter jet and selling thing like this to US is direct punch in the face.Now there is different goverment, pro-Russian and i doubt something like this will happen again but US got here a very big gift, US military can now practice with direct actual coutnerparts and that is a huge advantage.
@sukhoi235 True, but it's not like it's the first piece of Russian kit we got. I know of MiG-29, Mi-24 Hind, a lot of tanks and other stuff from USSR military etc.
But yeah if they used those for actual air combat practice that is pretty priceless.
@sukhoi235 but if lockheed, boeing or northrop ever use any feature patened on this aircraft, they are in an shitload of trouble from Sukhoi lawyers as they can technically exploit Lockheed for that.
It's unfortunate the government bought these and whisked them away. Will you guys be getting any more of these or something else cool like a mig-29? A museum in washington got at least one.
Dayum... 5 million is cheap for a fine aircraft like this, but fuel prices are soaring :( . The flanker is my favorite aircraft and i would love to own one (if i had the time and money)
Can't afford it :) unless I won euromillions this week (I haven't checked the ticked yet :-D). PLUS side: V.High Performance, Long range (unlike some Mig 29 which are also for sale but have much shorter range). 2 seater (It's a bit sad to own such a beast and not being able to share the sensation with comeone special). MINUS side: Where can I get maintnance? Ground crew required. Have to build up lots of flight time b4 flying this plus the time for ATPL and rating. Still... Irresistible :)
Boy would I love to have on of these.. so that the air force would think I'm invading air space & try to shoot me down.. which I will then happily sue the living shit out of em lol
@madim82 But without that guy connecting/disconnecting the hose and starting/stopping the air compressor, why is a ground crew even needed during startup? Do a walk around, make sure everything is in order, start her up and go.....?
God. every person i know wants them. including me. that would be fun flying this at home. over the twin ports. fly with the 148thFW. that would be fun.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
With full spoiler and still doesn't want to come down. Looks like the pilot never flew a modern jet fighter before. They are very good at what they are built for, flying. So when you come in you have to do it high and steep. This isn't no Cessna.
@TheTurbinator Haha, if you've done any research at all (which you obviously haven't), you would realize that the pilots in this video are highly experienced in fighter aircraft.
Why don't you get back to playing flight simulator, and leave the real flying to the experts.
@TheTurbinator Dude, are you fucking kidding me? It's stupid internet wankers like you who have never even SAT in a private aircraft that come on here and make jackass comments like this that piss me off. Stick to your sim, asshole. Your comment is so off base that I'm not even going to address the idiocy of it. Dumbass.
@TheTurbinator You don't seem to have a clue!!! Skywardmedia is right, he did it like it was suppose to be done. Oh and FYI that plane doesn't have spoilers, it has an air-brake ;-)
What a beautiful jet fighter the Flanker is, a real showpiece, I just love the graceful lines. I imagine flying a warbird of this magnitude is addicting.
What's up with the hater in the back ground saying "I don't care if he's a test pilot or not, he's always showing out, riding it on the rear wheels". Don't hate on the guy because he's a much better pilot than yourself. Jealousy will get you no where. Go get back in your Piper Cub and pretend like your him...lol
Where in Rockford is there a place to fly something like this? I used to race out at Blackhawk Farms, but that didn't have a strip associated with it.
@SomeUselessGeek -- A little place called the Chicago/Rockford International Airport. ;-) (And actually, there IS a small grass strip at Blackhawk Farms...)
@SkywardMedia Oh, wow. I thought I knew where all the regional airports around Chicagoland were. I never even knew that Rockford has a two runway airport! Oy!
it would be great to own but the only problem is it costs thousands for each flight becasue all the maitnance and fuel needed for it so yougot to have a ton of money
To John, Nathan, and everyone else at Pride; Congratulations. I had heard the rumors about this for so long and I'm excited to see what happens from here. Also, congrats to Steve Kirik, Pride's pilot. I can just see his huge grin every time he flies this awesome aircraft.
comments:
-keeping it on two wheels is called aerodynamic braking.
-with so much equip. removed, the airplane is light enough to easily slopped without a chute (and there are no "rules".. civilian use)
well your dad really sucks at landing haha but still very cool. oh was like he in the airforce or somthing or can any one with a pilots licsense fly that thing?
4.950.000... OMG! That´s alot! But the weirdest thing is that possibly it is already sold. :) I mean who wouldn´t like to own a plane like this? It is like a painting. There is no need to fly it. Even on the ground it looks beautiful! And if you would fly with it... You won´t forget it. :)
The obvious difference between the MiG-29 and the SU-27 is that the MiG is a teeny-weeny lightweight dedicated interceptor (MiG-29A) and the SU-27 is a massive mutlirole, with much bigger range and heavier weapons support.
The MiG-29 is a multirole tactical support fighter. Similar to the F-16 and F-18. The Su-27 is a pure air supiriority fighter like the F-15. Su-27 is about twice as big as the MiG-29.
@Krasnyi ok thanks i gotta say that this is one of the most beautiful machines or anything i have set my eyes on its just unbelivable someone thought of this shape from their head it is so perfect. I just favorited the video called "SU-27 and SU-35 Super Jets" it really shows howe beautiful this plane is. Oh ya the camo on this jet looks amazing
@sohcsarewicked Mig is said to be made for multirole but is basically a plane hunter, especially the Ovt version, Su is made for long range support of bombers as well as bombing!
Mig is twice a light and has exceptional maneuverability!
I read about these two Flankers in Pacific Flyer and Trade-a-Plane. There are only two in the country and looks like they were sold to TAC Air Support in Reno, NV now.
I m a little bit curious...whats the most important thing in a military jet?as a civilian, i could never imagine to have a military jet..its all about the software?
maaaan i am lebanese but have been living in cyprus for like 7 years.. and i remember wen i was a kid a fighter plane passed veeery close to my housem i could see all the details on it.. but when i tell people here they make fun of me and tell me im dreaming:p but thanks god now i have proof that it could happen:p
Compare a Mig 21 to a SU-27 is like comparing a 1957 Chevy to a ZR1 Corvette. Where the Mig-21 departs controlled flight, the Mig is still in the middle of the envelope..
To John, Nathan, and everyone else at Pride; Congratulations. I had heard the rumors about this for so long and I'm excited to see what happens from here. Also, congrats to Steve Kirik, Pride's pilot. I can just see his huge grin every time he flies this awesome aircraft.
comments:
-keeping it on two wheels is called aerodynamic braking.
-with so much equip. removed, the airplane is light enough to easily slopped without a chute (and there are no "rules".. civilian use)
@Tubeesaur I was thinking the same thing, a drogue chute is mandatory in most places that fly flankers because of the shorter runways in most countries, US runways from what I know are much longer and better managed surfaces, plus just the cost factor of deploying a chute in civilian aviation does not make sense, + these birds are de milled, meaning they have no gun, much of the electronic systems have been removed meaning they are much lighter , still very very cool
Because it is additional maintenance... and maybe also because the pilot don't have high skill on it .. as you can see the Sukhoi bounce 3 times before land ..
( went i do one bounce during a landing i consider it as bad landing )
If you want see a drag chute deployment on civil plane .. just seek on youtube : Learjet parachute
Very nice, but I think a Mig 21 is a much better deal, for around $150k. Don't think the performance of a SU27 justifies a 33x higher price than the Mig21's on the market now. But there are always people who have more money than they know what to do with...
I wonder if this is one of the two aircraft the Ukrainian government sold to the US during the summer. I hate our government... We just gave away two aircraft from our air force so some millionaire would get to fly them... This is my favorite airplane, by the way.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Let's hope this plane don't start WW3 xD
seriously, what if a F15/F16 on patrol saw this, they're gonna be like "OMFG the russians are coming! MW2 fuck yeah! shoot! die russians!" trigger happy Americans :P
"Thank you for purchasing a fine SU-27 from the Sukhoi Design Bureau. We are sure you will enjoy many happy hours smashing capitalist pigs in our high performance aircraft. Please fill out and return the attached warranty registration card."

what is the difference between this and a mig 29 they kind of look the same
sohcsarewicked 1 year ago
The MiG-29 is a multirole tactical support fighter. Similar to the F-16 and F-18. The Su-27 is a pure air supiriority fighter like the F-15. Su-27 is about twice as big as the MiG-29.

@Krasnyi ok thanks i gotta say that this is one of the most beautiful machines or anything i have set my eyes on its just unbelivable someone thought of this shape from their head it is so perfect. I just favorited the video called "SU-27 and SU-35 Super Jets" it really shows howe beautiful this plane is. Oh ya the camo on this jet looks amazing

@sohcsarewicked Mig is said to be made for multirole but is basically a plane hunter, especially the Ovt version, Su is made for long range support of bombers as well as bombing!
Mig is twice a light and has exceptional maneuverability!

I read about these two Flankers in Pacific Flyer and Trade-a-Plane. There are only two in the country and looks like they were sold to TAC Air Support in Reno, NV now.

Russian aircrafts are amazing in flight characteristics, but they need in more better avionics. Especially in electronic warfare systems.

But you couldn't fly anywhere and still get a tall enough ladder to get out of the cockpit.

Compare a Mig 21 to a SU-27 is like comparing a 1957 Chevy to a ZR1 Corvette. Where the Mig-21 departs controlled flight, the Mig is still in the middle of the envelope..

To John, Nathan, and everyone else at Pride; Congratulations. I had heard the rumors about this for so long and I'm excited to see what happens from here. Also, congrats to Steve Kirik, Pride's pilot. I can just see his huge grin every time he flies this awesome aircraft.
comments:
-keeping it on two wheels is called aerodynamic braking.
-with so much equip. removed, the airplane is light enough to easily slopped without a chute (and there are no "rules".. civilian use)
-AB is cool =)

Wow, very short take off. But why did they land without drag shute?
Tubeesaur 2 years ago
@Tubeesaur I was thinking the same thing, a drogue chute is mandatory in most places that fly flankers because of the shorter runways in most countries, US runways from what I know are much longer and better managed surfaces, plus just the cost factor of deploying a chute in civilian aviation does not make sense, + these birds are de milled, meaning they have no gun, much of the electronic systems have been removed meaning they are much lighter , still very very cool
54thAggressors 2 years ago
Because it is additional maintenance... and maybe also because the pilot don't have high skill on it .. as you can see the Sukhoi bounce 3 times before land ..
( went i do one bounce during a landing i consider it as bad landing )
If you want see a drag chute deployment on civil plane .. just seek on youtube : Learjet parachute

Very nice, but I think a Mig 21 is a much better deal, for around $150k. Don't think the performance of a SU27 justifies a 33x higher price than the Mig21's on the market now. But there are always people who have more money than they know what to do with...

I wonder if this is one of the two aircraft the Ukrainian government sold to the US during the summer. I hate our government... We just gave away two aircraft from our air force so some millionaire would get to fly them... This is my favorite airplane, by the way.

Let's hope this plane don't start WW3 xD
seriously, what if a F15/F16 on patrol saw this, they're gonna be like "OMFG the russians are coming! MW2 fuck yeah! shoot! die russians!" trigger happy Americans :P
