        The title of Hero of Russia is simply not given. Especially in 2008.

        From the biography: In August 2008, S. Kobylash participated in the armed conflict in South Ossetia as the commander of the 368th assault air regiment. He personally flew on sorties. During one of the attacks of a Georgian military convoy south of Tskhinval, a missile from MANPADS hit its left engine of its Su-25 SM, Colonel Kobylash removed the damaged aircraft from the battle. However, over the southern outskirts of the city, exactly the same rocket disabled the right engine of the aircraft, as a result of which the attack aircraft lost traction. In emergency conditions, Colonel Kobylash did everything so that his war machine did not collapse on civilians and, risking his life, took her as far away from the city as possible. As a result, the plane crashed in a deserted mountain gorge. The pilot catapulted and landed in the Georgian enclave. After some time, the search and rescue group was able to find and evacuate it by helicopter. The attack aircraft S. Kobylash became one of six Russian aircraft shot down in the course of repulsing Georgian aggression.

      Kobylash S.I. has the main raid on front-line aircraft, and, of course, is not comparable to the distant one.
      From Wikipedia: I mastered the following types of aircraft: L-29, Su-7, Su-17 and its modifications, Su-25, Su-30SM, Su-34, An-26. May 18, 2017 made its first flight on a TU-160 aircraft.

      He himself has never been a flyer, but he heard from the Rooks that by the 27 years the flyer should have 50 thousand, and by 35-150 thousand hours of flight. I don’t know whether it’s a lot or a little, but the flyers said so ... Or maybe kilometers? I don’t remember now - it was a long time ago ...

        In long-range aviation (Tu-95) in Soviet times, the mandatory minimum flight rate was 70 hours per year (now, it seems, - 50). But they flew 300 or more. By the time of dismissal, after 20-25 years of flight work, pilots could have counted 5-8 thousand flying hours. About 50 thousand - an awesome bust, especially for attack aircraft.

      Although Kobylash is not a "clean" far, I personally am proud to serve under his command. A man with a capital letter. By the way, as far as I remember, the conditions for the delivery of the honored pilot seem to be two: the total flight time and the number of mastered types. I don’t remember the raid numbers, but not less than 6 types.

        And they could even appoint a helicopter pilot, judging by the appointment of Surovikin. So not everything is so bad laughing drinks
