They are looking for names for these maneuvers. The only thing that I can come up with is “holy sh$#!”.
Woah.
The Mig-29 OVT has a 3-D, pitch and yaw, thrust vectoring system.
Russian manufacturer RSK MiG is offering the ultimate prize for the aviation enthusiast – a trip to Russia and a flight in a MiG-29. The prize is on offer to the lucky person who can come up with names for the four new aerobatic manoeuvres flown by the unique vectored-thrust MiG-290VT in its Farnborough display (pictured below).
The prize is available to visitors to the air show, where the aircraft is the star of the flying display. RSK MiG is asking spectators to name the four new manoeuvres flown by the Russian air force’s Swifts aerobatic display team by dropping into the manufacturer’s chalet. There will be a number of prizes for the best suggestions – but the overall winner will win the mouth-watering trip to Moscow, as RSK MiG’s guest. Readers can also email RSK MiG, although the prize is not open to non-Farnborough attendees.
