              Why so.
              Pilots of any country, it is primarily PEOPLE.
              RIP

            This is not the first time our guys are fighting like that, because of the notorious desire to save the car. It is necessary to drive in pilots so that in case of such situations they can eject or make it like on the Yak-38 - bailout in automatic mode!
            Damn this piece of iron, it's not worth it!

              An investigation with Tu 154 is still underway.
              And what is there to investigate for so long?
              I foresee questions about my competence.
              I will answer.

              Under the USSR, he was at home from 365 days a year 10-15. The rest of the time he spent on business trips in the Union in the analysis of flight accidents.

          Birds of any plane can fill up, especially if a flock of crammed into engines. Pokryshkin flew into the flock of starlings, while his MiG-3 received severe damage. Kvochur in La Bourget ejected, because the MiG-29 caught surging because of the bird. In general, the Moscow Region assumes that, because it does not know the truths yet. But different conspiracy theorists already know everything. Deceive their poor! They harbor the truth! But you all know that. Right?

            As Socrates once said: “I know only one thing, I don’t know anything ". The bird is a hypothetical version (so in a hurry, to be safe). When such a disaster happens - it is always a coincidence (overlay) of several factors. I know that for sure. We will wait for a detailed investigation of the tragedy and you can believe me, in addition to the bird, there will still be other points.

            The version does not work with the bird, and with the flock of birds too .... There is a corresponding service at the permanent airfield, which is also used by locators including other systems for detecting and repelling birds. The plane took off without alarm, didn’t get out of attack - regular take-off with all permissions ... Well, even if the bird - that is, a very small interval during take-off, where the plane is vulnerable - but then the pilots would catapult, there are no options ... Here are the others the version suggests itself, judging by the actions of the pilots, and this is due to control, hence the attempts to correct the situation on the part of the pilots ....

      More recently, respected people argued here at VO about a cadet. Reward or punish. The position of the instructors was for severe punishment for not following the instructions. Most were against them. And life, unfortunately, proved who was right. None of the most expensive iron is worth the lives of our people. And they saved the plane to the last. It’s clear, upbringing. It is necessary to eradicate such education. Not living at the time

        “On May 3, at about 9:45 Moscow time, when climbing from a Khmeimim airfield over the Mediterranean Sea, a Russian Su-30SM fighter crashed,” the report said.

        According to preliminary data, the cause of the crash could be a bird falling into the engine.

        Catapult K-36. Saves from the earth. But if the bailout does not occur in horizontal flight, but with a vertical speed down, then there is already a formula that states that the vertical speed must be multiplied by 4, for the first crew member, and by 5 for the second. And that we have, if the plane is reduced at a vertical speed of 20 meters per second, we multiply by a minimum of 4 (20X4 = 80 meters). And for the first and even more than 100 meters min, the height of the bailout. If the plane moves without a vertical component, then the formula works 0 meters (i.e. when taking off from the runway). Plus, there are restrictions on the roll at the time of bailout. The greater the roll, the less chance of survival.

          You give empirical calculations, for KT-1M, probably. The K-36 chair allows you to eject even from an inverted position, but here the height margin is very critical: at least 150 meters for single-seat aircraft, if my sclerosis does not fail me. For multi-seat aircraft, taking into account a delay of 0,2 - 0,5 seconds and the likely presence of a vertical component of the flight speed, the height of safe escape during ejection should be, respectively, greater.

        Well, judging by the video (of a US plane), they sat down at too low a speed, then the sensation of a strong wind flow and it is clear that the nose was slightly pulled up, then at this speed he naturally began to roll with his nose down and trying to level the car gaining speed on the engines they even tried to level it, but it was already too low, the plane spun again and it was already without a chance ...

        In our case, a little yes, it is not clear why they did not catapult. They took away from the buildings clearly, but as far as the last pull ... maybe they too hoped for more or less smooth splashdown. However, see what mushroom, it’s rather not splashing down or even falling into the water, it looks like an explosion (detonation) close to the water line. That is, it is likely that the BC detonated. They simply did not have time to eject.

              Absolutely the same thing that two pilots of the Boeing F-15SE Silent Eagle, who made the first flight in the 2010 year, do. One focuses on piloting, the second on the use of weapons. In general, I do not know why you recall the human mind if:

                    I don’t even want to discuss the first part. About conscience, how unscrupulous I am, I am discussing the loss of life. I probably offended these pilots somewhere, apparently said that they needed it. Well, I already understood your intentions.
                    F-15SE- how interestingly did Israel, Saudi Arabia buy them? Right, zero. Yes, on Wikipedia, where did you get the information from, something is written about it. But this apparently was written before the aggressive promotion of f-35. Why do they need a plane with a reduced epr of the previous generation, when they buy f-35, they just have a lot of cheaper planes, and the usual f-15 and f-16 and f / a-18. The Saudis are negotiating the purchase of the f-35. The cost of maintaining training and combat aircraft in one fleet is much cheaper than using a combat aircraft for training purposes, simply because at least the number of aircraft is reduced. Training aircraft should be used to instill primary piloting skills. Of course, the US Air Force has an F-15. do not throw away.

I also understand when the plane is taken away from residential areas, but here above the water, why? Better 10 planes crash than 1 pilot dies.

    My VUS-PDS. With 28 years of service. and the main task of this service is to teach pilots the Rules for the use of emergency rescue equipment. This is not an easy task, because every pilot is a person with his own worldview and sometimes established stereotypes. As a result, such a discipline, abstracted from emotions, appeared as Statistics of the Use / Non-use of means of emergency escape from aircraft in situations that unconditionally require it. So, based on my work experience, I want to say the following (although not everyone may like it). The political officer’s work played a very negative role in these Statistics, when even from the time of cadets, future pilots were insinuatingly insinuatingly drummed into their heads that an airplane for the country costs (in rubles) the same as several five-story residential buildings and therefore it needs to be very taken care of. And therefore, if the commission proves that it was possible not to eject, then you can say goodbye to flying work (if not to the Army in general). Many cadets learned this in their own minds. But when the Statistics became threatening (the mortality rate of pilots in emergency situations sharply increased due to non-use of rescue means), the Air Force command in the person of General Golubev sent out a special Directive to the troops, which specifically emphasized that the use of rescue means in flight emergency - there is the Fulfillment of Military Duty! Evona is like...
    As for me: I will never condemn any actions of a pilot in an emergency situation, because their lives are at stake, and sometimes they have only seconds to make a decision.
    Next I will post two posts with comments on what I read in this Topic.

    The first thing that upset me in the comments to the Topic was the childish jumping out in the “Hurray-Patriotism” style about the 0 -0 K-36 chair. This is not always true. And many people can fall for it (this unintentional mistake). It happens because sometimes readers take the information from the K-36 manufacturer (Severin Design Bureau) as the Immutable Truth in all discussions of in-flight emergencies. But "the devil is in the details." And just not in the Severin design bureau, which I respect infinitely. Yes, the Zvezda design bureau provides guaranteed escape from 0 (speed) and 0 (height) with a probability close to 1. But... all this without a lantern over your head! But when this seat gets into the design bureau of aircraft manufacturers, they have to solve in their design ideas the problem of removing the canopy from the pilot’s ejection zone. But the results of their design ideas sometimes turn out to be different. Here is an incident in Chernyakhovsk with the ejection of a navigator from a Su-24 from the parking lot and ended to the delight of everyone:
    https://pikabu.ru/story/sluchaynoe_katapultirovan
    ie_4057420
    .
    And here is the case in Smolensk with an ejection from a twin MiG-29 UB. Two pilots to death:
    http://forums.airbase.ru/2006/05/t38907--spasenie
    -katapultirovaniem.html
    .
    As you can see, the situations are superficially similar. The seats are almost identical, the planes are two-seater, but the results are opposite. It's all about the size and weight of the lanterns!!! On the Su-24 it is single for each pilot and is already half-open beyond the upper space above the cockpit, and shooting it with squibs generally removes it from the flight sector of the seat. Hence the result. But on Mig 29 UB, a single huge and heavy (300 kg in my opinion, I don’t remember) canopy just jumped above the pilots’ cockpit and began to fall back onto their heads. And then came the chairs...
    Hence the indisputable conclusion for those who, with their pants lifted, rush to crow about 0 (altitude) and 0 (speed). You need to rely on the final product (a specific aircraft from a specific design bureau), and not on its (albeit excellent) components (meaning the K-36 seat). Well, a small addendum: the flight manual for each aircraft must indicate restrictions on the use of the seat depending on speed and altitude. And the role of the lantern is clearly visible there. As, for example, in the combat (single-seat) version, safe ejection from the ground can be ensured at speeds of at least 75 km/h, and already on the twin (with a single canopy like the MiG-29 UB) - 130 km/h.
    By the way, the Su-30 SM also has a single canopy.

    Well, one more post. India once made a huge complaint about our Su-30 MKI, supplied to them by Novosibirsk. The essence of the complaints is that our suspension systems are crappy, which burst during the ejection of Indian pilots. The presentation looks serious. However, again, “the devil is in the details” (c).
    The nylon risers of the parachute in the airplane parking lot were left by their technicians lowered from the headrest along the back of the seat (uncovered with a special non-polymer cover. And their sun (sometimes coupled with a closed canopy) did its job, that is, quietly reducing the strength of the nylon risers. And when they were needed, they could no longer provide the required strength...
    I remember from my service experience. Once officers from the then EG AAPPS came to us and told a story with an obvious premise. Somewhere in one of our southern republics at that time, during the preparation of planes for flights, the canopies of the planes were open (that is, raised up). And the hot Central Asian sun took it and used the spherical surface of the lantern's glazing as a lens. (Anyone can observe this; you just need to place a glass bottle on a surface illuminated by the bright sun). So this focused strip began to melt the nylon halyard of the flashlight, the function of which is precisely to block the firing of the powder charge of the seat, if the flashlight had not yet flown away after the pilot pulled out the ejection handles. That is, if such a halyard were cut by the sun (or not connected to the lantern by a technician, or interrupted by an “enemy bullet”), then no matter how much you pull the handles, there will be no ejection. I hinted this for those who are only interested in stereotypical templates, often ignoring a fairly large selection of the possible things that can happen on board.
    I didn’t want to offend anyone, I just shared my feelings in connection with today’s downing of the Su-30. hi

    A very suspicious emergency. One pilot is Davidian. And second ? Isn't it an ethnic conflict?

    The K-36DM ejection seat is very good.
    Should have saved the pilots.
    It's a shame it wasn't implemented

    Satan rules the roost there! People die for metal. Any even extremely expensive iron is not worth a person’s life. My deepest condolences to the relatives of the deceased guys.

    Condolences for our pilots from the Americans

    do you really need it? And for what? Are we sitting on a Russian website and waiting for Americans? Or are you missing Bandera's drool? Maybe we can also remember the Poles? Why aren’t you interested in the Lithuanian Dalunya?
    Ugh... three times!
