so she was the. new kind of let's. say don't need to go publicly and run this in the kennel was her job as a retreat. in moscow good to have you with us here on our team using your headlines london becomes the latest european capital to erupt in protest over government austerity cuts with a riot after a forty thousand strong student and trade union demonstration against a new law tripled university teams. a fact deal even with unemployment and homelessness in the u.s. had a fifteen year high big banks on wall street could be about to pay record bonuses. russian prime minister vladimir putin says the arrest of wiki leaks founder julian assange means the west has no right to lecture about democracy as meanwhile moscow

wants answers from nato over leaks about secret defense plans against russia. next spread your wings looks at the most advanced and extreme ways to fly stay with us. but. i've never been like this before. so how does it feel. we did it. these people don't have a runway with powerful engines hold it's needed is a steep hillside or a with each bullet the each take off there is always a risk they are fresh no pilots but they proudly call themselves preflight pilots.

in the foothills of the rules a thousand kilometers from moscow. these paragliders have three days at their disposal they have decided to make several flights to different parts of fashion. to launch points all hilltops many paragliders consider the difficulty. so it makes a machine called head of the expedition chooses a gentle slope to start from the pilots are in a hurry they need to reach another launch point later in the day. i know this you would know this is my first flight today so i feel a little jittery. it's always this way it's first year cancer trembling before takeoff but still this car is calling us to smear with so once you get it tasted is

stronger than. paragliding infusing nicholai like i'm a cold weekend pilots he only recently began taking to the skies. in this expedition he has won an important and dangerous to make his first unassisted flight from mountain top. for the time being he's getting accustomed to the sky in tandem with his instructor. were ready for takeoff we're going to get there and my instructor is taking care of me. so you see what it's like up here it's all quiet pull off some aerobatics. oh good lord have mercy on me. when

a winch is used to launch paragliders the pilots in tandem depend. on. the winch motor further down the slope tragedy may strike if the snaps too quickly the pilots can relax only when the paraglider has gained enough height and the wing is filled with. what compels us to fly. the adrenalin you know it's not. like birds that's it it's. all my it's really great taking. when i was a child. release. when i was a child i used to fly in my dreams. over my hometown. and i really had

a feeling that i was flying. sort of feeling i guess lying apparently no doubt about it that's when you feel your hands are like wings. everything is beneath you and everything. only the wing is above you. and you have total power over us that is of course if you know exactly what you're doing. the fewest flights being troublefree before any takeoff the pilots once again go through a detailed run through of in-flight techniques on the ground you should be skeered up here just carefully assess the situation especially if the weather is six tree and the terrain is dentures in that case you need to act with clockwork conversation if you panic nothing good will come from your actions you need to be worried only before launch and after landing.

so. defined by the seat. and beginners this is the place where many. credits affect skills. will take up now and will turn left to the plateau. after that will try to line up. the members of russia's national team of hang glider pilots they head out by early in the morning when the weather around you is completely calm. this is the best time for what is known as speed it's a risky but spectacular competition when you're not very close to nature. you're in the air not in the cabin like a pilot the truth will look at where you feel when you're controlling the balance well you're catching me. your body with your head forward with earth and if

you're flying like a bird it will. hang glider is a swept back wing supported on a rigid frame the plane controls it by shifting his body. wait in various directions a hang glider can reach a speed of more than one hundred twenty kilometers per hour. speed glider pilots into fly as close to the ground as possible to gain speed. it may look serene from the ground but there's a serious competition going on between pilots they are trying to keep the maximum speed through the. one hundred and one thousand kilometers per hour is a decent speed. the means that the risks are great. just. to be gliding is difficult. the pilot needs

training. not all of them right away. training is an absolute must for a regular route let alone speed gliding. this route around. the next destination for the expedition is mt. it's food to pay homage to a pilot who was killed in an accident is several years ago. is blunt and to the point the mountain gives us wings takes away friends in exchange. the free flowing pilots. as. a convenient and easily accessible point is found at its top but the pilots have to be on the watch during flights so as to stick. to the wind is coming from the valley you mustn't go be on

the rocks into the clouds even. in the winter. grove down there so we'd have difficulty touching down a flight path is narrow only about one hundred meters. if it's the right goodish. here in the spring this is a series problematic mountain and there are dangers place in mind you have to be very careful here that if. the weather. take off from the mountain because he is only a beginning. he does allow the failed north to go ahead he's experienced and has taken over from the mountains single handed several times before. the full me in my way right behind my back oh come on come on

be careful great. get into rising here. you sure. you're full well done rafa and. he's good at flying one continent on good control of the glider. he had no problem touching. i'm going to join him. but look this is lisa already current time up here this loon us. poor weather conditions. anybody.

but we fulfilled the exercise despite all that. in paris only one in the finals and flights may result in an accident but there are extreme pilots and they often risk. russia's middle and the small time of the. political party by the name of alexei machete was one of the first russian pilots to attempt a painter's trick of flying a powered power glider under a bridge when people thought we picked up the measuring tape checked out five different branches none of them suited our navy. friends inspected many bridges before they settled on this one that is situated

between the towers of tokyo and some. suited us marvelously. high above water on the river flowing underneath gives us more guaranteed a safe flight under the bridge with the rest is a matter of technique. i like say flies something called a power motor which is a traditional powerglide a wing powered by a small. with a propeller attached. to the very simple piece of equipment it has a two stroke engine with. a miller. and a fuel tank and it's completely safe to you. the weather is the main risk factor. should be totally calm the volga river is one of the most beautiful but difficult sights for such flights it is always windy. alexei needs to pinpoint the exact moment when the wind dies down and then fly under the bridge as quickly as possible

the motive behind the pilot's bike weighs fifty kilograms if the wing brushes the bridge he will be sent crashing into the water. but when you start ladders use a special system to rescue pilots after splashdown it's called. can find it here on the power outlet or. not go through. this system works automatically when a pilot crashes into the water. instantly inflates a big balloon within three seconds with the initial lift them up to safety. as he circles over the bridge aleksei chooses the right moment for the aerobatics the wind has now dropped precision is crucial the gap between the bridge and the water is quite narrow and a gust of wind will push the part of course. and the glider traveling is sixty

kilometers per hour it is in for a rough ride if he hits the water. like same a shot across stream came true but not before putting his life at risk this is undoubtedly an extreme sport.

early morning in the most scary region an unusual vehicle is driving along the highway it's a three wheeled carriage with a propeller. this aircraft is known as an ultralight trike they are used in russia for forest fire reconnaissance. company scott so for a pilot with the emergency ministry special unit has been flying has tried for thirteen years flying isn't a full b or a spoof on t.v. it's his job in the mind. is to do a fly by sector spot find sources within syria with you. as well as old ones generally i gather information about. the forest

down. the wheels of an airplane and steering mechanism of it is reliable convenient and collapsible but easy. to put together alone so a colleague will always help. people . nearly every year in the region in. the a just under the ground so no one can see the flames just the smoke it's hard to locate the hot spots from the ground but they can easily be spotted from the. pilot always confirms his route one last time before setting out. and then to. the north. west. in the northern region.

contacts blast away. will have to come to one thousand eight hundred square kilometers which is always the area of london the capital of great britain most of the territories heavily forested. in dream news the locations of the places where the most likely to break out and where one can make an emergency landing. is an experienced pilot he always tries to pass over the forest quickly goes lower than three hundred meters above the treetops. your kashif call is waiting for you to land trying tell him yourself. will find it telling yourself. offroad i'll tell him. do it. first fires create

powerful. they rise sharply and easily overturn the trike despite the fact that the machine weighs around four hundred kilos. did not see any major fire breaks during his two hour flight safely back to. call a bitch everything's fine around it but i got delayed by having a smoke a flight appeared to be forty minutes longer than intended i checked all the spots got pictures of the trust i'm caught fire but the firemen sent the trucks immediately. with the. addition is in its third date in your book the weather is more favorable to date i expect it to be a great day for pilots sure who will be joining our fellow pilots who'll be flying

around in great numbers. tacl will be simply breathtaking. the instructor alexei's said so first he's going to size up the situation in the sky and the strength of the wind. the wind is so strong. that the most important thing is to move forward but that's not happening right now so. i'll release the brakes. and go a bit. brief scramble the pilot studies the wing and soars into the sky. do you think this is typical of summer time earlier this year a pilot covered one hundred kilometers in area. he took off from here first healing girty in a dynamic current waiting for the arrival of thermal and then it lifted him to

an altitude of want kilometer or even more and then from that point he embarked on the route. alexei radios another member of the expedition to tell him he is cleared to take off when. greets him and both pilots begin soaring. all right now we start soaring. every now and then we go up or down with the wind we fielded beauty and comfort of the flight there is a little turbulence because of the smoke see that's what i'm talking about. let's go to the right it's safer there. meanwhile the third member of the expedition on the ground has been desperately trying to raise the wing stabilize it

and take off but all of his. attempts have been in vain the instructor decides to touch down fly with nicholai in tandem. flying is it different why it's a life of a bird when flying you if you feel as though you are looking at things through the eyes of a bird as if you had wings sensing every tiny wee for fear of the flying gives you incredible excel aeration you must fly by old me in spades. looking bad so many of those on the ground think that attended is just for girls. i found this is just not true. if you fly without legs see you will see what a time there is all about that. has spent three days trying to take off single handed the bad weather and his inexperience helping he can rely only on the instructor. we do that and there's some people can keep steady at your landings if

they fall to the ground at the last i'm not because they're a skier they were just carried away by the moment so they sit on the ground. and feeling great was their eyes are dilated but not from fear it's your euphoria. one of the pilots is back on the ground after completing his flight he is helping alex a deal with the strong winds during takeoff. our speed is seventy kilometers per hour against the wind most of the pilots flying here are weekend pilots professional pilots don't fly here unless they want to practice takeoff or flying in a dynamic current. the northern caucasus is one of russia's best choice for professional paragliders the route from the takeoff point goes through the chip game a goal which in the main caucasian race. this is where

experience deploy let's come to flow. conditions. created by the. high glider pilots. real interesting flights can be found. only professionals can fly their. conditions. the most experienced pilots to take. strict instructions. to fly. lines. don't go into the. even if the weather is good you are simply not skilled enough. taking

from. within a short time even a tandem of pilots is swiftly lifted in the vertical position by a powerful current. altitude one thousand meters above reveals a breathtaking. many people overcome their fears and fly over mountain tops in order to see that. the mountainous landscape is a source of inspiration for instruct. him is regarded as a great skill. grazie .

name is expected. she can. at least once this is the last launch point for members of the paraglider expedition the pilots go to told food this is be the most difficult to say in three days the weather is getting strong winds and drizzle. is ready for the flight but first of all if he decides to monitor takeoff it is first unassisted flight from this mountain in extreme weather conditions. racing big larger easier number one objective you run toward develop and takeoff on the way i'll be instructing you by radio. i'm always jittery when i take. ten or twenty such takeoffs. to grab me a smooth flight. forgive me and have mercy on the sailor. for

you member everything i taught you to do be careful with the brakes go through the procedure twice or three times don't worry. if you control control. let's do it once again who is on board school surface go back to the launch point spread out the glider. grab the controls make a turn run for your life. hold up your hands. keep running don't drop your hands. dancing no get away from the mountain. this is a difficult mountain beginners are not going to take off from it because it's dangerous. for nicolai he has gone through basic training and he can. well for to

take off from this mountain. the paraglider expedition in has been a success three pilots have been able to take off from that choose launch points. first hit. the landscape is a real. taste of breath away from the excitement of free flying. and i'm not an experienced pilot yet and i hope everything will be just fine. these mountain tops have been conquered but there is still more free flying in store.
