Only a third of the training planes of the Cosmonaut Training Center, designed for piloting training, are suitable for flying, reports MIC with reference to the head of the Center Yuri Lonchakov.

Only three training aircraft for training astronauts are suitable for flight.


“The L-39 aircraft we have is a fairly large number, ten aircraft. Of them in the ranks of three. This year, we hope, two more planes will be commissioned, ”said Lonchakov, speaking at the conference“ Manned space flights ”.

L-39 - combat training aircraft, produced before 1999, in Czechoslovakia. It was the main training machine for pilots of the Warsaw Pact countries. All of them were released about 3-x thousand units. Still remain in service with many states.

    Wow ... the old man still flies, and the Czechs produce spare parts for them?

      No, they can, and release, but they do not deliver to us ... - NATO!
      I dealt with this problem about fifteen years ago.
      There was an acute problem of import substitution for L-39.
      There were no components and there was no one to repair. Then the repair slowly mastered the Krasnodar ARZ.

        Production of the L-39, or rather its more "advanced" versions of the L-59 and L-159, was discontinued in 1999. Until recently, there were no obstacles to the supply of Elok. Moreover, the Czechs themselves have repeatedly and persistently suggested it.

            Where is it about spare parts? what However, spare parts are also not a problem, they are in abundance in warehouses. In any case, in the USA, several dozen L-39 of various modifications were restored. There would be money and desire ...

              Yes, the L-39 training jet is being completed at all schools, and now at the Cosmonaut Training Center.
              But our aircraft industry is preparing to replace him with a new training aircraft, a piston Yak-152. laughing
              It's nothing that the Yak-152 will be an obsolete machine, in comparison with the same "old man" jet L-39, the main thing is that they will be new, from the factory, with a large flight resource. laughing
              But in general it’s bitter, for so many years, not to develop your own Russian jet, single-engine, economical training aircraft, which once again confirms the lack of proper order in our aviation industry, in the aircraft ordering system.

    ten planes. Of these, three are in service.

    A strange situation for the Cosmonaut Training Center. Logically, everything should be all right with the Matbase. The question immediately arises, why the head of the Center did not take measures to eliminate this misunderstanding (you cannot call it another way). And if you tried to accept, then who exactly at the top sabotaged this?

      But in general, really, it is strange - dozens of Yak-130 aliens do not allow to buy? request

    I do not see anything critical.

    "Yak-130 (NATO classification: Mitten - mitten) is an UBS combat training aircraft created at the Yakovlev Design Bureau in cooperation with the Italian company Aermacchi. The aircraft is intended to replace the outdated L-39 training aircraft in the Russian Air Force. In the process development, joint work with the Italians was suspended due to disagreements and each of the firms implemented their concept independently. The Yak-130 became the first aircraft, which was a completely new development (and not modernization of existing machines) created in Russia after the collapse of the USSR. "
    "Serial production of the main variant - L-39C Albatros - began in 1973"
    41 years old L-39 in the sky! It’s time to rest. There will be a planned replacement for our aircraft. And that’s all.

      I swear I don’t understand the minus signers! Not that I was worried about the rating - not at all.
      I just think that if you do not agree with the opinion, put a minus - argue the answer!

      PS almost everyone who advocates in the comments to this article for the transition to the Yak-130 were "minus". I am plagued by vague doubts ...

    here it should be considered, just if at this stage it is cheaper to restore, then it is necessary to restore L-39, but provided that they are replaced with our Yak. Moreover, the planned replacement, that is, gradually, the budget is not rubber!

    Yes, just not enough for everything. And they, too, may not launch all their plans. After all, even recently they wrote about Star City and what fraud the administration is doing there. Three years ago, they upgraded their food for a new centrifuge. so they waited more than a year to pay. So everywhere is hard now. They have something flying, and then not bad. Good luck to them.

      Aircraft, like pilots, in astronautics, are more likely a tribute to tradition - with modern orbital stations and duration of stay, more divers are suitable! wink

    The liberal press makes uncertain precautious posts on topvar. The topic is simply not serious, in Kushchevka these albatrosses do not fly measuredly, so all this is crap on a stick. I see only one goal - the authors want to say that everything is bad.
