Free flight - this is a wonderful feeling of will, freshness and wind in your face, this merging with the heavens and the white-winged horses of the clouds … Even if it lasts only a few seconds, like the participants of an unusual air show " Red bull flugtag". And it is a sin for them to blame fate: their" planes "look too unusual. So, if you want to know who flies better, cows or buses, you are here.
Free flights the crazy Red Bull Flugtag has been held every year since 1991 - and sometimes more often. During this time, the show managed to take place in 35 cities of the world, and last year, for example, it was in Kiev. This time the honor fell to the capital of Israel. In fact, the competition in Tel Aviv is very similar to the crazy race of moving sculptures we described in Baltimore: each participant makes wing structure, but only does not ride on it, but flies. Moreover, flying miracles in feathers are made by hand, without a single nail, but with a buoyancy margin. And no motors - just muscles! I would look at these " muscle levers"Leonardo da Vinci …
No, no, everything is not as dangerous as you thought. Downstairs, 9-10 meters from the launch pad, there is water, which is even pleasant to crash in this hot time. In Tel Aviv in the summer it is so warm that many even jump without a "plane": several participants went on a flight with umbrellas.
By the way, why not with umbrellas? All the same, the free flight of even the most "advanced" structures lasts only a few seconds. The participants (and, by the way, there were just over 30 of them) are trying to make cows, storks fly (and this is clever), a dubious type of biplane-biplanes … One of the teams even equipped a "flying ass" in flight. Should we be surprised that it did not flutter like a butterfly? However, the record holder of the day (on a plywood biplane) overcame whole 20 meters, and in ancient times, Flugtag members flew 60 meters! And, as they say, 50,000 people came to watch the spectacular performance.
Red Bull Flugtag promise to be held in August this year in Moscow. Let's hope that free flight strange constructions in the Russian capital will do without politics, smoke and terrifying heat.
