I haven't posted any screenshots lately because I've been busy. I've also been taking advantage of Safari's superior speed to download lots of interesting aircraft! Here's one of them!

This beast has a huge radial engine up front! This particular aircraft belongs to one of the British Red Bull Air Race pilots and is in their new duo display scheme of 'The Red Bull Matadors'. This was their old colours before Red Bull sponsored them a few years ago.

She's very impressive to watch. She is able to turn as tight as the modern, lightweight aerobatic aircraft such as the Extra 300 or the Edge 540.

Smoke On! You can see that big engine as it tears towards you!

It's hard work moving the stick. The controls are rather heavy. One problem with the cockpit: I can't read Russian! :p

The large ailerons are very good for roll rate!

She's rather hard to land, I only just managed. She bounces quite a lot if you do something wrong with her.

And that, my friends, is the SU-29!
