Russian Military Helicopter Crashes During Air Show Celebrating Airborne Forces Day, One Pilot Dead
August 2 is the day when Russia celebrates its Airborne Forces, only this year something went very wrong, and it was all caught on tape.
As Reuters report, one pilot died and another was injured when a helicopter crashed at an airshow in the Russian region of Ryazan on Sunday. During aerobatics at the event some 200 km (124 miles) south-east of Moscow, an Mi-28 helicopter went into a flat spin before crashing.
RT adds that while performing a stunt at the Aviamix air show on Sunday, a helicopter belonging to the Berkuty (Golden Eagles) aerobatic team suddenly banked on one side and started to lose height.
The moment the helicopter lost control and crashed was caught on video:
Russia's Air Force Commander-in-Chief Viktor Bondarev has ordered the grounding of all Mi-28 assault helicopters following the catastrophe in central Russia, the Defense Minister reported.
“The crew fought to save the helicopter to the end. Unfortunately, the chief pilot died on impact - the co-pilot survived. According to the second pilot, the accident occurred due to technical failure. I have suspended all Mi-28 flights. The commission under my leadership is working to clarify the causes of the disaster,” Bondarev said.
As of this moment, there has been no hint of industrial sabotage either through Stuxnet or Windows 10.

Lost his tail rotor. Acutally did a hell of a job leveling it out and maintaining control from the extreme attitude he was in when it failed.
Indeed.
Don't see that alone as enough to bring it down so fast.
Intel
I don't know,,, when losing a tail rotor one should try for airspeed. That is what we did in Vietnam. Once sufficient AS is achieved the A/C can be landed safely especially if it has wheels. I suspect a loss of hydraulics and therefore no tail rotor or main rotor control.
Edit: Sorry,,, I was trying to reply to Stackers...
I thought if you lost tail rotor you have to dump power to the rotor as well or you go spinning off like a top. Without any forward momentum all he could do was let it drop straight down and hope to get enough air moving up through the rotor to provide some lift on the way down.
Something is telling me, if this will happen to US helicopter no Tyler will post this on ZH.
Or am I wrong?
Looks like he ate a flare.
Don't know the Soviet set up, but he wasn't able to dump the nose for air speed.
Hell of a job, Brownie,
(seriously)
I take that back, he seems to be low lead.
Fuck those uncalbrated metric torque wrenches.
http://www.military.com/video/aircraft/helicopters/mi-28-attack-heli-fir...
Cool Video, thank you for sharing.
Yes you can dump collective and trade some altitude (if you have it) to get AS. He may have been trying an autorotation - which requires controlled collectiver- ,,,but it won't work too well without hydraulics to pull pitch just before smashing into terra firma...
Don't know,,, Tragic,,, Maybe the Russians will tell when they figure it out. I was absolutely flabergasted when the co-pilot made it out. They make their choppers tough!
Russian equipment is known for it's durability, and lower rates of attrition than most American equipment. Different logistical philosophies....
Yep, lost tail rotor function. Broken driveline maybe. Did a great job of going to flat pitch and minimizing the rotation. If he'd had more altitude to work with both may have walked away, outstanding flying skills.

Aerobatic team. Nuff said. Happens all over in many countries. Don't get cute flying a helicopter beyong it's purpose.
Planes want to fly, helicopers...not so much.
Planes crash too, especially fighter jet during Airshow...
LOL. Then there was this the other week:

Cry me a river.
Must be one of them recent Europeons.
No, just another minimum wage Ukie troll trashing Russia as their country circles the toilet bowl. I wonder how his visa application to the EU is working out, LOL>
I'd rather call you a mincing faggot.
Such a delicate response there genius.
But I thought the Ukies were Europeans in training, wishing for gay marriage and worshiping at the feet of Conchita Wurst.
but, but but the failed Russian missile launch did not damage the ship it was launched from, while the failed US missile launch landed on the deck and made an owie on the ship

Dobt enlighten muritards with reuth. It hurts lol.
The funny part is everything going bust during grandiose displays of military might. Like this Buk in may: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yymGgn2cfG0
Just few months back a f-15 crashed on a house in murika. That was also funny isnt it .
I don't really care.
No of course you don't. Instead you are praying for an EU visa so you can leave your Ukie shithole. Unfortunately for you, the europeans don't need you since the Polish have taken all the toilet cleaning jobs and the African whores are cheaper.
Let's see how long it takes for someone to blame the CIA acting at the behest of the jooos.
http://investmentwatchblog.com/white-house-insider-u-s-orchestrated-mh17...
cute. jews qua group have never ever done anything contrary to the interests of other groups. No Zionist Jews were instrumental in getting the US into ww1 as part of the Balfour quid pro quo and no group was more vocal for peace before the Iraq war.
http://www.historycommons.org/context.jsp?item=western_support_for_islam...
For people like you, Israel, and Jews are **never** subject to criticism.
Meanwhile, you never, ever object to criticism, no matter how unfair or inaccurate, of ANY other group.
Which makes you a cunt.
No...I think the point was, people don't blame "Christians" or "athiests", etc... for causing world events/tragedies/conpiracies, yet somehow 'round here events are pinned on "jews" or "Zionists" - the term used by the pussies who want plausible deniability for blaming a religion. Why don't you give me a cute euphamism for Christians, so next time something bad happens, I can blame it on them without opening myself up to criticism for blanketly blaming a religious group.
The Russians appear to have excellent impact absorbing seats on their helicopters. Otherwise, the co-pilot should have had a broken back. I was amazed to see him essentially walk away from that crash.
Mi-28 has "non-retractable tricycle tail-wheel type landing gear. This energy-absorbing landing gear and seats protect the crew in a crash landing or in a low-altitude vertical fall. The crew is able to survive a vertical fall of up to 12 m/s." (wiki)
The single big factor that sold the Blackhawk to the .gov was a crash.

How many US soldiers committed suicide last week?
well, more have committed suicide in the past 10 than were killed in Afpak and Iraq combined.
And while private charity groups struggle to help the families of the horribly injured because the feds don't do shit for them, we spend tens of millions to re-arm Israel *mid war crimes*.
Cute.

Russian soldiers aren't killing themselves.
That's my point.
If they were, I'm sure I would have seen an article about it on ZH.
if Palestinian Arabs burned a Jewish baby to death, that too would have made the weekend, more neocon/Fox/Drudge Hedge.
In fact, it would be front page news all over, like every rocket that lands harmlessly in the Negev, the IDF violence it was a *response* to buried deep in the story if present at all...

Consequent failures of both hydraulic systems according to the words of the surviving pilot. Warnings went on right one after another.
I am sure there is a connection with Obama, or the US, or CIA secret weapon. Maybe some Ukie ex-brothers, now fascists? :D
This is where you have to go for connections. Not POTUS in this case.

Jews Object to “Xenophobic” Euro Parties; But Support Ultra-Xenophobic Israel
November 2, 2014 by TNO Staff— in Middle East · 0 Comment
The Brussels, Belgium-based Jewish organization CEJI (A Jewish Contribution to an Inclusive Europe) has lashed out at what it calls the election of a record number of “xenophobic” candidates at the recent European Parliament elections—but is a firm supporter of Israel, whose prime minister has recently warned that “African immigrants threaten the identity of [the] Jewish State.”

Israel’s Nazi Nuremberg Laws-based citizenship rules are not strict enough to preserve Jewish racial purity and more needs to be done to prevent non-Jews from marrying Jews, that country’s chief rabbi has declared.
Interviewed by the Israeli newspaper Ynetnews, Israel’s Chief Rabbi David Lau—the single most powerful and influential Jewish religious leader in the world—said that his nation’s “Law of Return” was letting too many non-Jews into the country.

Cookie?
Hindsight is 20/20, but it might be a good idea to explore whether some strategically placed thrusters, could be employed to provide some level of temporary control, should tail rotors become damaged or inoperable.
I'm thinking a hybrid rocket, using a rubber tube as the fuel and oxygen to meter the thrust.
You like parachutes on aircraft, don't you?
http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20131223-should-planes-have-parachutes
That's a thousand pounds of cargo that each airliner won't be able to transport.
Of course it's a great idea, but the bean counters would say that it's too costly.
At least they still have the capabilities to bring down a passenger Airbus. Just as they brought down passenger a passenger Boeng in 1983.
You know, when our equipment fails and someone dies I have never heard someone in Russia say that about us even back in the USSR days. They are always apologetic or say nothing. Your statement shows typical American arrogance.
Flight 007 was warned multiple times and was shot down after they refused to land. (You might want to thank the CIA for that and probably many others.)
MH 17 was an Boeing if your referring to that.
The only airbus I can think of was shot down by the USS Vincennes after supposedly mistaking an Iranian passenger plane for an F14!
The Israelis shot down a Libyan passenger plane in 1973.
Can we at least have some respect for the dead?
Thank the CIA???? What? Who was on Korean flight 007??? Larry Patton McDonald, yes a cousin of George Patton. He exposed the CFR's new world order. Yes, he was chairman of the John Birch Society at the time.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Shlx4qu3USo
JBS has been proven correct 62 years later...
"Yes, he was chairman of the John Birch Society at the time."
I wonder how many former members of the John Birch Society grew up to become free-traders who happily shipped our manufacturing capacity to Communist China so that they could make an extra buck? Say, you know what you call a conservative Republican who loves his country more than he loves money? Queer!
How many passenger planes has the US shot down?
Not counting, of course, doing so via proxies in Ukraine?
What's your flight number for Thursday?

The delicate Genius : "How many passenger planes has the US shot down?"
Iran Air Flight 655 was an Iran Air civilian passenger flight from Tehran to Dubai. On 3 July 1988, the aircraft operating this route was shot down by the United States Navy guided missile cruiser USS Vincennes.
As an air-defense specialist during that time period I got to speak to some of the fire control members on that ship. I would have shot that son-of-a-bitch down myself based on it's behavior.
It was descending rapidly on a collision course witht he ship and ignored hails. Fuck them....every ADA guy I know who had knowledge of the shoot-down agrees, it was an attempted sucide attack againse the cruiser.

How are you doing mother Russia?
At least they still have the capabilities to bring down a passenger Airbus. Just as they brought down passenger a passenger Boeng in 1983.

At least they still have the capabilities send atomic bombs on two peaceful city. Just as they to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
Zero Hedge, sucking Rusian Cock again, gobble it up, yum, lick those balls too. ZH is constantly biased with only good news from the Russians that only makes them look like heroes, never the bad stuff...
Oh....
Wait...
Nevermind.

Thank you, Ma'am, fot clearing this up.
We should all remember that after Edward Snowden landed at Sheremetyevo International Airport in June 2013

You seem very familiar with sucking cock. Even accentuating your penchant for licking the balls.
Lets discuss the thousands of fuckups of the USA military. Too long to list here.
They do discuss both here. That is my point.
Not all pro Russia, all the time, though I will say that they give Russia a little more positive air time but that is only because the MSM gives the Rusian point of view zero airtime. Even if those stories are slanted like our stories, two stories are better than one for trying to figure out what is what.
Meanwhile, most politicians are Mafiaosa-- Russia and the US included.
Let's discuss the low country military , there Butch.
Except for a very brave few and the current crop of Mohammedans that are being raised there, they, along with a bunch of the French population, are the original 'Hands Up Don't Shoot'.
Military fuckup is the middle name of most European military expeditions.

Lot of aircrashes in russian military! So far 7 military planes lost in 7 weeks, now this is 8-th.
I dont think its right time to bash US. I think its right time to say that feeling sorry for those families who lost their sons and husbands and brothers. You know I hate putin rehime but I dont hate people even if they serve to a such criminal regime. Its sad that they lost their lives. So rest in peace...
Maintnance costs money, money in Russia is in short supply with the oil crisis.
Dasvidanya!
First thought i had when watching the video was those flares were flying everywhere hot and heavy
Oh Lord, give me the eyes of an eagle, The courage of a Lion, and the Balls of an Army Helicopter Pilot!
this is very unfortunate.... the pilot was a true warrior and fought to the very end to save the situation... that was an amazing display of pilot skill to keep the landing level... my heartfelt sympathy for his comrades and family, hopefully they figure out the root cause of this quickly

As of 2013, ACPC's website did not list its membership or board of directors. But in its American Committee for Peace in Chechnya formation, its board of directors was co-chaired by Zbigniew Brzezinski, Alexander M. Haig, Jr., Steven J. Solarz, and the late Max Kampelman. The committee's more than 100 listed members reflected a wide political spectrum, including such figures as Richard Gere, Morton Ambramowitz, and Geraldine Ferraro. However, membership was overwhelmingly hawkish, and many high-profile neoconservatives, some associated with the Project for the New American Century, featured on its membership rolls, including Richard Perle, Frank Gaffney, Elliott Abrams, Midge Decter, William Kristol, Michael Ledeen, and James Woolsey, among others.[12]

Autorotation is never fun.
