Russian Night Aviation Training

The Russian young pilots of the Tver military transport aviation regiment are seen training at night in piloting Il-76 aircraft.

The footage of the flight operations that took place over Tver Oblast in Russia was shared by the Ministry of Defence of Russia yesterday ( 17 June).

During the exercise, Il-76 planes took off, landed and flew along a given route at low visibility due to the night.

One of the most difficult elements of the training was the take-off “from the conveyor” which means that on landing after reaching the runway, the pilots take off with an additional flight.
