04 It's not the Photoshop, it's my fair picture. The most successful my photo of the series of a photos those seconds ! It was the celebratory airshow, devoted to the 75 anniversary of military-transport aviation of Russia.

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Tue October 28, 2008:
Totally cool! Russian jet fighters are best!

A visitor from - posted Fri October 24, 2008:
Where is the wing of the ruskye vityaz?
the grulla is normal, but the ruskye vityaz, his wing was cuted, to do that, they should be "gluered", and the noses will be on a diferent positions!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat August 30, 2008:
I saw this show by the eyes. It very much impresses!!!

Thats awsome!!! how is that even possible?

A visitor from Germany posted Fri March 14, 2008:
So, is this how Russian birds copulate?

A visitor from United States posted Fri December 14, 2007:
Pilots are crazy but VERY good!!!

A visitor from India posted Fri September 28, 2007:
Suberb skills on exhibit by russian pilots. equally good timing.

A visitor from Germany posted Sun March 25, 2007:
The pilots are very skilled

A visitor from Canada posted Sun March 11, 2007:
My eyes keep going around and around trying to separate the images and finding yet more detail; the composition is --to me-- really something spectacular. congratulations on the timing of this shot

A visitor from Ukraine posted Wed March 7, 2007:
The Russian pilots are the best!

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Wed February 21, 2007:
Five star without any doubts! Long live Russkie Vityazi!!!

A visitor from United States posted Sun February 11, 2007:
This is one of the strangest photo I saw in my life but still is the coolest

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat January 27, 2007:
Good timing. shows the poor condition of the paintwork very clearly. although this looks like an impossible situation it is actually quite straight forward. the lead aircraft flies inverted and the wingman just formates tightly on him. wasier said than done though!

A visitor from United States posted Thu January 25, 2007:
Never seen anything like this,impossible.

A visitor from Turkey posted Thu December 14, 2006:

HEY JACK WHERE IS THE SECOND PLANE ?

A visitor from United States posted Mon August 14, 2006:
This is a great picture because this manouver done by these to aircrafts is incredibly difficult.

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Fri August 11, 2006:
Hey, pal! You are wrong: Russian Knights are going to be equipped with Su-35. I saw Su-35's photo with Russian Knights paint scheme in the "Aviation and cosmonautics" ¹ 8.2006

A visitor from Germany posted Mon July 17, 2006:
Those pilots must be totally crazy - and having a good live-insurance

A visitor from France posted Sat July 15, 2006:
Just how close can they get !!! how many inches apart are they !!!

Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A visitor from Korea, Republic Of posted Wed July 5, 2006:
Wow!!~~

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Wed June 28, 2006:
Perhaps it's hard to believe but our display teams are in the very sad state now. "Rous" comes to an end - they have only pair of L-39s able to fly. Russian Knights now have no enough planes with appropriate colour scheme and only way to fly even small formation is to take usual Su-27s from combat units... but TBO comes to an end on many planes and chances to make appropriate overhaul looks negligible

It doesn't looks impossible to say goodby for Rissian Knights in the near future :(

A visitor from United States posted Wed June 28, 2006:
That's amazing. I think the planes are not exactly one under the other. The one on the bottom looks as if it's to the left of the one on the top. It's still amazing though. Nice job!

A visitor from United States posted Fri June 23, 2006:
How'd you like to be the person in the back seat of the belly up plane...YIKES!

A visitor from Germany posted Fri June 23, 2006:
Why should it be dangerous?

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Thu June 22, 2006:
Good

A visitor from - posted Sat June 10, 2006:
The One & Only Best combat pilots in the world are from the Israeli Air Force. The Most Outrageous airshow pilots in the world are Russian. That's a compliment!

A visitor from Germany posted Fri June 9, 2006:
Great shot

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Fri June 9, 2006:
Incredible!

A visitor from Brazil posted Wed June 7, 2006:
Great shot Mr. Melihov!!!! Just amazing see how close this birds seem to be.

A visitor from Brazil posted Wed June 7, 2006:
How is it possible? Can you see that they are side by side? Look at the inverted one´s wing!

A visitor from Germany posted Wed June 7, 2006:
????
The plane on top flies in front, the plane below in the background - right?
Im am looking a few minutes at the picture already, but i am still not convinced ...

A visitor from Uruguay posted Wed June 7, 2006:
Alwayss the russian pilots are the best!

A visitor from Malaysia posted Wed June 7, 2006:
This is one blooming fantastic shot! Hope they don't touch each other. :S

A visitor from United States posted Wed June 7, 2006:
How come the belly-up bird looks closer to the camera than the other one?! Isn't it just 3/4 of the normal size? ;o) Unbelievable!

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Wed June 7, 2006:
A very interesting picture, Sasha! You've made a nice _podvokh_! :)

A visitor from Malaysia posted Wed June 7, 2006:

A visitor from Peru posted Wed June 7, 2006:
Simply an outstanding shot

A visitor from United States posted Wed June 7, 2006:
That's gotta be scary for the pilots. Good job getting the pic.

A visitor from Austria posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Congrats! This will be the next winning picture on A-net! What a shot!

A visitor from United States posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Those planes are so close. Looks like they are mating.

A visitor from Canada posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Great shot! Hmmm Well-worn SU-27...can't afford extra hangars??

A visitor from Sweden posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Thunder is born from Gods copulation.

A visitor from Canada posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Simply astounding! Both for them to fly like this, and for you to get it...

A visitor from United States posted Tue June 6, 2006:
I just hope they are wearing protection.

A visitor from United States posted Tue June 6, 2006:
The blue angels are good but they tend to be a little boring, these guys kick it up a coulpe of notches!! wow wow wow !! i wanna see these guys at fleet week !!

A visitor from Germany posted Tue June 6, 2006:
A breath taking picture. Great...

A visitor from Netherlands posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Looks like the matingdance that eagles do,cool stunt
Actually,the Sukhoi Flanker does look a little bit like an eagle if you use a bit of imagination

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue June 6, 2006:
What an excellent shot, looks like these pilots could give The Blue Angels a run for their money! - Of course I am assuming this is two aircraft and not some wierd russian concoction! :)

A visitor from Russian Federation posted Tue June 6, 2006:
No doubt, Russian Knights are the best

A visitor from Sweden posted Tue June 6, 2006:
My hat of for the russian display pilots. Great captured photo!

A visitor from India posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Gagg what I should say?!!

A visitor from United States posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Are they mating? Great shot and the pilots have got to have huge Kahunas!

A visitor from Canada posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Really tight, man!

A visitor from Germany posted Tue June 6, 2006:

A visitor from Australia posted Tue June 6, 2006:
I need to see this from another angle to beleive it!

A visitor from Malta posted Tue June 6, 2006:
Echoes of Shakespeare - "the beast with two backs"! But what's a display aircraft doing with such faded paint? Doesn't detract from the photo though - excellent capture.

A visitor from Netherlands posted Tue June 6, 2006:
How is this possible? What was their speed at that time? Great capture though
