I think everyone's made their point. U2fly, you may continue to post Ukrainian airplane stuff as you were and unless someone wants to talk about that, ignore or observe the posts otherwise. U2 has only really used this thread for this stuff so I think that is fine. Just make sure not to quad-quintuple post, etc. If you make 3 or more posts and no one responds, it's not really much of a thread.

I, personally, think that post that are irelevant to ysflight should be about plane crashes or anivesaries, or in some cases news about a brand new plane that is coming out.
and BTW Lucas, no need to swear.
So let's close these irrelevant things and allow only relation things to YSFlight :twisted:

We need to keep together, no keep fighting between us - about what everyone think.
A couple weeks the skies are blues, but now with these polemics regarding these discussion. Glad that all are solved.

"Ghostbusters" in Ukrainian Air Force
Image

This is most interesting story moment that related with ukrainian Su-27 №10 paint.

In 1993 this aircraft №10 take interesting story. On winter of its year ground radar stations detect above Kyiv (capital of Ukraine) unknown aircraft on altitude near 2 kilometres, that was marked as 'UFO'. From Myrgorod Airbase was called Su-27 №10, that was on military duty. When Su-27 came in needed pattern, there was a dark time. Onboard radar of aircraft had clear scope, pilot started visual patrolling, but on background from city lights he don't detect any unrecognized object. When his aircraft burn all fuel, he was called back to airbase. But this strange dot on the ground radars still was on scopes some time. After comeback from task, this aircraft and its pilot started be a subject of jokes. As result technical personal paint on the right side of this aircraft emblem of well known Ghostbusters.
Image

One more interesting fact, that this aircraft still has stars on the wings, that was left after USSR-era. Currently this plane holded in reserv and wait for upgrading.

I find this funny, because I have a joke with my sister. She likes to hunt for ghosts. I told her that ghosts are not real but aliens are real, and aliens use ghosts to cover up their presence.

This pilot when looking for a UFO and got labeled a Ghostbuster. :lol:
