Excellent.  8-) I'm sure it was a blast to fly the 52, but I'm sure glad the air-to-air shots are of the S-M. ;D Beautiful airplane.  :-*

Amazing scenery from up high. How fast do these things go? ;)

We were cruising at 125 kts, which is apparently somewhere between 200 and 250 kph according to the Russian airspeed indicator. ;D
