Fragments of an instructional video for pilots of Polish Air Force, made in 1961.
Instructors are ejecting from SB LIM-2 training fighter jet (MiG-15 UTI which was built in Poland).
It was a time, when ejecting was not so safe and aroused fear among the aviators.

  • Didn't Yuri Gagarin die in an Mig-15 UTI ?

  • @Orangebike666

    Exactly.

  • @clostermann9 Although, I wounder why it was a Mig- 15 UTI? I also wounder if his death had anything to do with this safety video.... a year after he died?

  • @Orangebike666

    SB LIM-2 (Polish version of MiG-15 UTI) was standard trainer jet in Polish Air Force, and in USSR also.

    Gagarin died in 1968 (he was flying a soviet MiG 15 UTI). This video was made in 1961, so I do not know what you mean...

    If you want to speculate about the death of Gagarin, then I beg you - not under my film. There are much more appropriate... This one is about history of Polish Air Force.

  • Unfortunately, Soviets had never made similar films. Somehow they really were not keen on filming anything, even their own acheivements.

  • Taki fotel waży kilkadziesiąt kg - więc chyba logiczne po co ma spadochron.

  • Ok, if the system had waited that long to deploy i would have been terrified.. Yea i know i guess it menat to do so to lower the speed for the parachute.

  • Super materiał.Ten z tyłu miał niezły przeciąg ! ++++

  • @clostermann9 Oh, I must have read it wrong in my textbook. Always learn something new.

  • @alekwisnia

    No jasne że nie na pilota... Tylko na ludzi na ziemi. Chyba nie lata się nad pustyniami?

    Pooglądaj lepiej, zawsze jest spadochron przy fotelu (jeśli katapultowanie odbywa się tuż nad ziemią, to nie zdąży się rozwinąć, bo fotel odpada od pilota, zarazem wyciągając spadochron, który rozwija z pęd powietrza). Dziś trenuje się na specjalnych urządzeniach. F-16 to samolot bojowy, nie ćwiczebny. Samolot szkolny musimy sobie kupić, na razie mamy Iskry z lat 60-tych, z fotelami strzałowymi.
