Krasnodar higher military flight school is one of the oldest in the country. Its history dates back to 1938. During the great Patriotic war hundreds of pilots trained here have glorified their Alma mater. Now in Krasnodar flight preparing pilots of fighter, attack, bomber and military transport aviation. From 2017 to grasp the basics of air admitted and the case girls. That was yesterday’s schoolchildren grow up to be fighter pilots, “MK” was told by the head of school the General-major Sergey Rumyantsev.
Sergey, Krasnodar flight in the country know as the only learning of girls. The experiment was a success?
–I have to Say: this decision was not one year. It’s not just to let the girls in the audience Yes to simulators-simulators. Need serious training. Therefore, the recruitment of girls began only in 2017. Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu announced the news at the air force Day on August 12.
–Many future pilots learn?
–Only school trained 45 girls. Specialties several. Main profile is a military transport aircraft.
But remember, girls literally rushed in attack and even fighter aircraft.
Right. But not so simple. Overload is not all the strength. Now the two girls plan to develop a fighter, one attack aircraft and one aircraft long-range aircraft.
the Initial flight training for future pilots are on a training aircraft L-39 training base near the village of Kushchevskaya.
–is the cadet life among boys and girls?
Girl-students live in separate dorms. Two girls in the room. As we say in the hostel kubrikova type. And the word “hostel” nobody should be worried about. There are all necessary conditions: spacious rooms, comfortable beds, modern showers, closet, comfortable study places.
Guys-students also live in the cabin. At their disposal exactly the same comfortable beds, a bathroom, a place for learning – in this sense, all are equal.
Eat separately?
–But eat all the cadets of the Krasnodar flight exclusively together. And the menu is all the same.
the learning Process different?
And here we have full equality. Curriculum, classrooms, sports hall, gym. The aircraft is also one for all.
Yes, and teachers conduct classes in the educational groups without regard to who in the audience – girls or guys.. In this sense favors the young ladies do not give: we are raising professionals, the requirements are the highest, they can not depend on gender. The sky does not forgive mistakes.
What aircraft cadets learn?
–the Future pilots of fighter and tactical bomber aircraft in the process of theoretical training studythe t new su-30 and su-34.
as for flight practice, most of the cadets of the 4th and 5th courses master the flying program for combat training Yak-130. And it’s not just “flying Desk”. The Yak-130 in its capabilities can be considered a battle in every sense. It is best to acquire the skills of piloting the su-30 and su-34.
–And how many of you have cars?
–I say this: enough for everyone. But seriously, the Yak-130 are operated in the training squadrons, three air bases of the school. It’s Armavir, Ukraine and Kushchevskaya. In the near future, “yaki” is planned to rearm training air base in Kotelnikovo.
the New planes will appear on the training base in Rtishchevo.
as a training aircraft upgraded turboprop L-410УПВ-E-20. But that’s not all. Since last year there are new training light aircraft DA42Т. They are well suited for exploring the sky, in the study of the first maneuvers.
They are armed aviation training base in Balashov. This year they have conducted pilot training of cadets of the 2nd course.
What disciplines are exploring future pilots?
In school, students study 56 subjects. Among the Humanities – history, philosophy, law… of Course, mathematics, physics, computer science. And aerodynamics, strength of materials, aeronautical meteorology, parachute rescue training.
an Important element of learning – practice, including flight training.
–Many people wonder: parachute jump will have?
–And how! This part of the curriculum.
–Your graduates can become pilots of the aircraft?
Theoretically, Yes. But we must understand that civil aviation has its own specifics and peculiarities. So definitely needs a thorough re-education.
–And become an astronaut maybe your graduate?
Why not? Our graduates do not just fall into the team of cosmonauts to fly into space. For example, twice Heroes of the Soviet Union Vladimir Komarov, Viktor Gorbatko, heroes of the Soviet Union Yevgeny Khrunov, Georgy Shonin.
we Have studied foreign military cosmonauts Hungarian Bertalan Farkas, Pham Tuan from Vietnam and Abdul Ahad Mohmand of Afghanistan.
the Requirements that we pose to our students in the future can become a base for participation in the selection of candidates in cosmonauts.
Hard to do in College?
Candidates should show a good level of knowledge in subjects such as mathematics, physics, Russian language. It is for these disciplines are conducted the entrance test. However, it is possible to provide the results of the exam. Well, of course, need a good physical preparation. Without it the pilot or the pilot can not cope with the overload.
Assessment of physical prepotevrenost of candidates is carried out on a number of exercises. For guys it’s lifting, running on the “sprint” and cross three kilometers. For girls of torso from lying position, a hundred meters Jogging, well, kilometer sprint at the time. All the details and rules of admission to the school published on the official Internet website of the school (kvvaul.mil.ru).
