Getting to know UKRAINE and its aviation.

Ukraine has a very old & strong aviation history with many airfields, manufacturers, educational institutions & museums. Come with me in the Ukraine Air Force-liveried McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Super Hornet to see some of these sights & learn their history. Let's hope that the current war is over soon & that Ukraine regains its rightful borders & place in aviation history. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

 
Speaking of Ukraine, I saw this Ukranian marvel flying out of PHNL yesterday:

That one (or one like it if there's more than one) flew over my apartment a few years ago leaving KGSO. My (ex) wife thought I was an idiot jumping up and down from excitement over such a rare spot!

Thanks once again for a fantastic video. This one specially shocking & emotional in the current context.
 
You guys and your wife comments LOL. I feel very lucky that my wife encourages me in my flying/simulation addiction. Maybe it’s her way of keeping me out of her way!? I don’t care - it’s a win-win! Cheers.
