Takeoff from UHP1 (Lenino) in a MiG-25 at dawn |

|

|

Heading towards UHPP (Yelizovo) |

|

|

Some great shots, swooping low over the snow-covered valleys |

|

Field in sight |

Flyby at moonrise |

Gaining altitude before turning onto the right bearing. |

Starting my descent into UHPP (Yelizovo) |

Arrived at UHPP (Yelizovo) |

An Airbus A340? This is what happens when you don't download *all* the CSLs. |

Sunrise at ground level |

Kumi arrives |

|

|

|

|

|

Tonka arrives in an Su-34, narrowly missing someone who isn't looking up the glideslope.. |

|

|

|

|

|

|

The A340 really puts the cat among the pigeons. |

The old and the new - Tonka's Eurofighter looks great behind my MiG-25. |

I take off again in the old MiG-25 and fly around a bit. |

|

|

|

|

|

|

Supersonic turbulence gets me into a nasty unrecoverable spin, and crash. |

|

|

I take off again, fly around - and land properly this time. |

|

|

|

Final approach in the MiG-25. |

Kumi spots a Nimitz-class carrier out in the bay. I change planes into an SR-71 and taxi out to 34R to do some espionage. |

|

|

Taking off with full afterburners. |

Heading out to the bay, with the field in the background |

|

Target located. |

I buzz the carrier, getting some close-ups. |

|

Spotted by an Su-15! |

I light the afterburners and escape high and away. |

|

|

I return to land at UHPP. |

.. after getting a great high-altitude photo of the airfield. |

I change planes into an Su-34 and taxi out behind Kumi |

|

|

We leave UHPP, bound for UHMM (Sokol) |

I catch up with Kumi, notice gear looks down - but it's just an artifact of the CSL |

I shadow Kumi for a while as we head out over the Sea of Okhotsk. |

I reach the coast |

Lining up for runway 10 |

Arrived at UHMM (Sokol). Over and out. |
