Cosmonautics. Space Aviation Regiment. (2017)

The first cosmonaut of the planet Yuri Gagarin initiated the creation of an aviation regiment, where future cosmonauts master flight skills.

Gagarin invited Hero of the Soviet Union Vladimir Seregin, who taught all cosmonauts of the first set to fly, to the post of commander.

It was Seregin who developed the principles of training that instructors of the aviation detachment are guided by today.

Everyone should be able to fly a training aircraft.

Astronauts are required to operate in the so-called critical flight modes when the pilot experiences heavy overloads.

In fact, during these classes, flight conditions on a launch vehicle are simulated.

The plot starred L-39 squadron commander Marat Khalikov, cosmonaut Sergey Kud-Sverchkov, commander of the joint aviation detachment of the CPC Andrey Voloshin, Nadezhda Seregina (daughter of Seregin V.S.), deputy commander of the joint aviation detachment of the CPC Oleg Fedorenko, cosmonauts Oleg Blinov and Anna Kikina.
