He Did Just ...WHAT?? - Jurgis Kairys, Sukhoi Su-31 ✈️ FLYGFESTEN 2022

[@qwertykeyboard1207]

WAS THAT A COBRA

[@Airguardian]

Kinda! Technically, in a proper cobra, the plane barely gains altitude, but it was pretty close to being called a cobra (the speakers definitely called it a cobra). But the fact he pulled it in the midst of a landing approach combined with a sideslip approach is just mindblowing. And that's not the only thing to make my head go b00m in this display!

[@andersramstrom7844]

this is how good it gets when one of the world's best pilots gets to perform. incredibly nicely done! hope he flies in Sweden next time as well. thanks for a superb movie😀

[@Airguardian]

Thanks Anders! It's even more impressive since he was in the design team for the Su-31, I didn't know about that, what an amazing guy! :DDD

[@sducoco74]

One of the best pilots with one of the best aircraft !

:DDD

[@UraFlight]

What an amazing flying display and brilliant flying skills 😊 We should invite this pilot to UK airshows. Also I like how you did film it.

[@Airguardian]

Thanks! And yep, this guy's something else!

[@zovslavsforever]

Now this came like a bolt outta blue! Kudos to the production quality! 👏

[@Airguardian]

Thank you very much! I've had my computer broken for almost a month... gotta get up to speed now! haha

[@zovslavsforever]

@@Airguardian For sure! Eagerly awaiting the new uploads bud!

[@Kabin_or_Tsubo]

凄い！まだ飛んでいたんですね。 Japanese people who like airplanes love him. I saw him fly 20 years ago and it was amazing.

[@Airguardian]

Awesome! :o

[@zovslavsforever]

Commendable torsional rigidity of the fuselage!

[@Airguardian]

Yup! Circular cross section helps in that regard ^^

[@baselhammond3317]

Legend of aerobatics, a real inspiration

[@Airguardian]

Hell yeah!

[@cmtebespalez]

Nice video!! And the ailerons? Looks like the Laros-31 project. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Airguardian]

Thanks!

[@Triple_J.1]

Fantastic performance. I would not have expected to see an airplane gain altitude while hauled back into a complete stall. 2:26

[@Brightsideofmilitary]

Can i use some small clip of your video about su 30 giving your credit

[@SlexBi]

He is 70 years old!

[@Airguardian]

Yeah, no kidding! :o

[@wolfgangpeter2995]

😮

[@mindaugasjurevicius2264]

ViVat Kairys

[@Airguardian]

[@nierkasas]

Does anyone knows how old is he? Yeah, age- just a number.... And number is 71 at the moment...🤷😊

[@Airguardian]

Crazy.

Inertia doesn't faze this guy.

De pratar i munnen på varandra när de borde hålla käften istället.

[@Airguardian]

Hahaha, jag förstår vad du menar!

[@k.squared]

I hope you do realise that neither India nor russian federation have anything to do with what's in this video... Kairys was born in a family of ordinary Lithuanians deported to Siberia during Stalin's repressions, and the flag of fascist russia next to his name is a huge insult.

[@user-pf3ev4ws7u]

@@k.squared Kairys grew up and learned to fly in the USSR. Passed the Soviet flight school. In the video he is flying on a Russian Su-31 plane. Are you, by any chance, a fascist yourself? You also don’t know history, apparently.

[@k.squared]

@@user-pf3ev4ws7u Listen, tell all that to Kairys, ok? Even implying he has something to do with the modern russia will land you the shortest conversation you ever had. I grew up in USSR as well, btw.

:D

[@lars9966]

i swear sukhoi makes the most beautiful aircrafts, but damn this one is really ugly. prefer the extra's

[@Airguardian]

I actually like their acro designs! (Su-29/31) and they fly hardcore too... but beauty lies in the eye of the beholder ;)

[@Triple_J.1]

Form follows function with these. Wheel pants would help look less "spindly" but adds weight.
