the history of civil and line is in the soviet union can be traced all the way back to the russian revolution in one nine hundred seventeen when the new bullshit governments saw rick as one of the main ways to modernize the country. then you communist leaders believed and travel would be the most efficient way to transport both people and supplies across the vast country in one thousand nine hundred eighty three the first soviet ally got a lot was created several other smaller companies were formed and nine years later the name and a flight was officially adopted for the entire service civil athlete era flaws went on to become the largest airline in the world with to pull off and illusion and craft making up the majority of its massive fleet as the aviation industry flourished around the world the u.s.s.r. was no exception. back to the museum along with the space race and technology as a whole day you can see how the soviet era through secrecy success and failure was

a melting pot for ideas innovation and development. moving to our next location and it's time to look at modern day akaash training the simulators here are used for a variety of reasons the design and development of aircraft and for research into a cough movement and stability people also come here to share entertainment if you have a dream to flying a plane well this is as close to the real thing as you will ever get. with the level of your interest here we have a cockpit of a seven thirty seven energy legion aeration which is open for everyone eager to experience being apply it is a full scale cockpit and provides the same conditions as a real pilot deals with you can choose any just a nation around the world and try to control the plane in any weather conditions we welcome children as our guests do they just love this why experience of your home. on the walls you can see various photographs taken from cockpits cloud formations

hand. just make sure you don't make any dramatic maneuvers you'll soon hear the produce disapproval in your headset. travelling three hours south of the capital by tom and we will ride to our next destination here a small flight club specializes in aerobatics the practice of making out of the reef line maneuvers the training recreation it's in the spirit aerobatics all towards military fighter pilots to develop flying skills and for tactical keeps in combat today i've been invited to take to the skies will be a roller coaster at ten thousand feet good job i haven't eaten. now the first flying club as it's known in this has been here for two years previously the f.a.a. has used back in the u.s.s.r. for aircraft but by pesticide other planes the guys use here are they yak eighteen to the fifty two and the fifty four which you see here i want to experience for

hear the powerful engine so it's very good a bright yellow propeller plane he witnessed this in the sky and after meeting my pilot into the aircraft i go and on my honest to goodness knows what i have got myself into i have a feeling this is not the faint pulse is. one thing that is apparent straight away is the noise from the monster of an engine if i take the headset off i can hardly hear my self speak. moring down the runway because we feel every single bump and crack in the surface of a stomach churning roller coaster in the sky as we banked to an incredible sixty degrees the views from above are impressive it feels very different to a typical commercial flight though that's for sure all aerobatic maneuvers demand training and practice to avoid accidents likely today my pilot mike seems is the main instructor and trainer at the center. g.

forces are being seriously pushed here with a high pitch and a sub nose dive it's time to experience brief weightlessness zero g. . they said drill in field experience in mission. everything nice to human body can cope with everything but it's a positive nine g. i've not even reached of that yet. good to know how was the experience. time for landing and the easy easy a little wind to the left and we have contact with the ground again and although shaky i live to tell the tale. thrill seekers eat your heart out that's what experience i will never forget. moving on and we've arrived at our final location should a metaphor and court almost thirty kilometers to the northwest of moscow let's look

a expects to increase traffic to thirty five million people and become the best hub in europe in terms of customer service with glittering arrival and departure cools this is a wonderful. example of change in russia a massive reconstruction of the terminals is still in the way resulting in state of the officer there even plans for a third runway. of course and ports are highly guarded locations and security is the priority but sometimes there is a chance to see what's behind the usually closed doors occasionally moscow sheremetyevo organizes the so-called plane spotting event. journalists and bloggers get access to their response plan thanks for taking pictures of aircraft in action . just a cross-posting ampoules is popular in many of the world's biggest airports opened their doors and access to runways both amateur and professional photographers face bosses very much enjoy the opportunity and then share their pictures with the whole

world so everyone can have a closer look at the world of flying. expanding wishes aviation industry is paramount to the country's future. radical changes to aircraft fleet in terminals budget and lines infrastructure new technology and next time you pass through one of those cars and cause you to see those dramatic changes and regarding entertainment what you want to learn to fly a simulator that will speak to the skies and the yakovlev stunt plane there are dozens of places that will satisfy plane and adrenalin love as before ages in moscow one thing's for sure the sky is the limit. i just love them but of course me that's all the time we have on the things program on the subject of flights so you get the same time next week and so that for me and the rest of the crew from the second runway here i'd fare better bear but by now.

gymnasts were experiencing a major senior event for the first time he won an individual silver medal in the vault while russia only managed a fourth place in the team event however on dawn feels that the guys were robbed of a bronze world championship medal which. we did great and i think our performance deserved a bronze medal but the judge's decision was unfair or it will be different to the olympics where the judges will not be able to take away points from our so blatantly russia's national team coach on duty or do you want to call believes the issue is not with any one particular judge it's rather a systemic problem a solution to which is way overdue it's not a mistake because there are opinions in this case but that is then should been you know it's still different. and then so i have to and visible difference of course will work better but i'm sure. the games will be brought

within like. in the forceful did them subjected refereeing is nothing new with artistic gymnastics far from the only sport where certain decisions seem controversial the issue is now under a close watch by russia's sports authorities and the country's sports minister it's out in what's called promise to discuss it with the head of the international gymnastics federation viewers the world i'm certain that the i.o.c. should pay close attention to such things and we have to speak with all the nations that sponsor major sports and make sure that objective refereeing is in place for everyone involved this is global problem and not just in gymnastics while it looks like once again we will be looking forward to not just the political achievement of the upcoming olympics in london but unfortunately also all the drama that will surround the judging into the less objective events at the games room on calls for an artsy moscow but interesting stuff fallout is all the sport for our weather is
