- In today's story, we will get acquainted with the full-fledged flight simulator of the Tu-154M airliner, created by the Legend Aero center. The distinction of this simulator from the "classic" ones in this field is that its cockpit is not an imitation, but a real cockpit of an airliner that has flown until recently.
In the video, we will get to know the aircraft and the features of its control, the simulator itself and, of course, the instructor who has vast experience in piloting the Tu-154 in ordinary and unusual conditions.
Thanks to Legend Aero for the opportunity to get acquainted with the simulator and interesting people.

Somebody probably already said this, but the equivalent for us US folks would be flying a sim with Capt. "Sully" from "The Miracle on the Hudson". Sounds like a cool pilot to get to fly with.
That's so cool. Not only do you get to 'fly' a one-of-a-kind flight sim, but you get to do it with a national hero! Outstanding!
Cool and wonderful to see that this simulator has been made! I love analogue cockpits, I have been in Finnair's old DC-10 and then in the newer MD-11 simulators a few times and I must say the DC-10 was cooler be-course of the instruments.
I was able to fly the DC-10/KC-10 simulator at McDonnell Douglas Long Beach. It was amazing. I worked there in the 1980s &1990s. Great place to work. Miss those Mad Dogs!
This is totally awesome! What a thrill it would be to fly the simulator. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Another contributor to that miracle was a guy who for years kept the weeds and such from overgrowing the runway. Just in case it was ever need again. I believe the deal was that even though the airport wasn't in use, it wasn't officially closed either. From what I recall, if he wouldn't have maintained the runway, the pilots wouldn't even have been able to see it, let alone use it.
I have been binge watching these videos since last week friday
Командиру Ламонову низкий поклон и уважение! Летчик высшего класса!
Another great video , hello from Canada
Hello Canada)
Never flew in a 154 sadly…. Hoped to very much. One time leaving Murmansk I went out from the small waiting room onto the are where the planes were parked and a 154 was directly ahead…. we seemed to be going to it…then were directed left to where a 134A was waiting.. A great Aircraft in itself, but one I had flown in a few times….. ahh well )
@Skyships ENG
*Love your channel*
Most of us in the west would NEVER get to see and hear about these planes if not for you.
Many of us in the west and even in the USA love Russia and the Russian People.
This is so cool! THANK YOU!
That was really interesting, and cool!! At least the 'buckets' opened on that off field landing!!! 8)
I have been in a 737-300 simulator which is also built from a real airframe's cockpit, feels really unique compare to those CAE's NG model.
Oh, It is huge coincidence that I flew that machine yesterday in X-plane :)
what a fantastic opportunity for you! I'm jealous! Great video!
Would love to see a special on Soviet civil aviation. What was it like to fly Aeroflot? How did you buy a ticket? What was a flight from Moscow to Vladivostok like ... etc.
If we're talking about TU-154, it had to make a stop somewhere in Siberia. I know of Krasnoyarsk (from personal experience) and Abakan (VladAvia went through it), but there must have been other possible locations as well. There was also a non-stop flight on IL-62, but this one I don't remember well, because I was rather small at the moment of that travel. :)
@@alexandrasoroca8868 Thank you! That's just the kind of story I'd love to hear about in depth.
It's probably a pipe dream, but I'd love to see the application of Flight Simulator 2020 to the same hardware (though obviously it's missing so many features in X-Plane, namely a proper Tu-154 aircraft). There are excellent third-party models of Moscow available in the game already. Maybe one day!
EDIT: Haha--I'm like number 737!
_"time to return"_
could not agree more!
What an incredible idea. Considering the number of partial and complete planes in various boneyards, the potential is there to put pilots and wannabes in the the authentic captains seat of any number of classic aircraft. All it takes is a huge bankroll and serious ambitious aviation enthusiasts.
I still want to tour all your cool aviation museums once this current business is over. Moscow & St P. are on my list, I'll be kicking off in Moldova.
Cheers to happier days ahead Sky & well done on your channel.
Wonderful post. Thanks so much for the TU-154. And the story of the landing was truly remarkable. Delighted that folks made it out. Not really amazed as I know Russian creations are generally "robust" as are the people.
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩♥️♥️
Welcome)
@@SkyshipsEng omg thank you for the reply ♥️💘
Excellent episode!
Love your content
That’s for sure. I’m becoming a huge fan of USSR aircraft, and this vid is incomparable.
Ha... you did have a lot of fun, didnt you?
Congratz bud.
You deserve it.
Great to see what enthusiasm can amount to! A bit off topic but it just crossed my mind again when watching: Every soviet aircraft ( military or civilian, regardless of manufacturer) I have ever seen in a museum has consoles in the same mint green / turquoise colour- something I have never seen on western planes. Is there a reason/ explanation for this design?
its for reducing eye strain, and make it a bit more calming,
Cool little bird, 727? Looks familiar? Cool simulator...
By no means 154 is small
@@TocTeplv Ah, it reminds me of the old Boeing 727 wisper jet that came out in the 60's-ish...Same engine configuration....
Great sense of humor!! :) :) Great job
What an achievement. They should be very proud.
How awesome is that! One of the coolest sims ever.
Great video! I'm really jealous.
10:36 "don't pout"??...ahaha haven't hear that said in years
Excellent!!
I've often noticed that the interior of the cockpit in Soviet aircraft in always painted this unusual turquoise colour - even in fighter aircraft.
What is the thinking behind this?
Russian psychologists deem the colour to have a calming effect.
Ah, so it is not only me who is wondering about this! I hope we get an answer. I have been pestering museum guides about this for years, but so far no luck...
That looks like a lot of fun.
Sky as always… more please!
I wish they'd do a IL-62...now THAT would be cool !!!
Oh my gosh. This Chanel have English version. I'm 4 years watching only Russian language 😁
Old Soviet plane. The vintage simulator is a good idea, but the plane itself stalled in 1970's
We will remember those time. The time people looking at the best design so they make a lot different design and fly them
But now most of the design are look the same
Cheers to those who fly this plane in RFS
was this the pilot who landed the plane using a glass of water as an attitude indicator? or was that a different incident in Russia. I think it was air crash investigations or something similar about a flight that lost all systems and the pilot had the flight attendant bring a cup of water up. Water always seeks level.
Now I wonder how many other old planes set for the smelter have found their way into simulator centers. Some really old ones like Stratocruisers or Constellations could be interesting too.
Felis xplane made this great plane go buy it...i love it!!!!
A flying museum piece. this is what contributed to their loosing the cold war. The simulators we use have 15 foot stroke.
Is there anything better looking than a trijet workhorse regardless of who makes it?
Did any of the picture tube instruments from the original instrument panel serve any purpose in the simulator?
Refreshing...
Just curious Sky. Do Russian pilots say "V1. Rotate. Positive climb rate. Gear up." but in Russian? Or do they say something else? Not trying to be funny. It's an honest question. I ask this because I think since there was such a separation between the West and the USSR back when airline aviation was young, I would think there would be a difference.
They do. But slightly different words. Idk about the western plane pilots (Boeing, Airbus pilots), but for the older Soviet plane they do have those callouts. 9:00 When they're taking off in that vid, the pilot makes these callouts. V1 is called Рубеж (Rubezh meaning boundary), Vr is called Подьем (Podyem means go up), And V2 is called Безопасная (Bezhopasnaya means Safety), lastly gear up is the same there but in Russian (Шасси убераится/ Shassi Uberaitsya). That is what I understand. Maybe some Russian here will correct me. And the translation is a rough one, but the meaning is close enough.
@@evanopos5 Thank you Sir. This is gold! Thank you very much.
What is the display with the rubber screen or blinkers around it. The device just above the engine throttle controls. Who uses it, and how do they get into a viewing position?
@COlcultist
I think it is a screen that you are meant to actually put your face against to look though into the screen, reminds me of something you'd see on a sub's periscope!?
The rubber covered display I believe is the on board weather radar. As for the blinkers, idk which one ur referencing to, but maybe just a warning indicator if I can guess.
@@evanopos5 Thank you. No not "Blinkers" as in the British English term for indicators, as in car directional signals. Blinkers, as in the term for the leather shields to restrict a horse to only look forward. This term might also be used for a device restricting the ingress of light.
How the hell did someone position themselves leaning above the engine throttles to view this radar?
@@COIcultist ah, I thought blinkers as in blinking lights. wrong blinkers then, my bad. But I think that blinkers are meant to restrict the inggress of outside light like u said. And/or to make the display itself brighter and more vivid cuz maybe the display can't produce brighter image. So it's like how you see ur phone display in direct sunlight. And not necessarily like u see through a periscope. Cmiiw
@@evanopos5 It matters not. Hopefully we here with an open heart to talk, not get into silly squabbles. I've never been impressed by that side of TH-cam posts. We talk and we learn from each other.
I'm just puzzled on how someone looked at that screen and firstly got into that position and secondly didn't impair use of the throttles?
My Bois are back 🔥🔥🔥😅
3:24 real pilot spotted 😅
Whats the name of the song at 5:51?
The song just prior to that is "In the atmosphere" by Bad Snacks, song At 5:51 may also be by Bad Snacks. She is a royalty free music creator that happens to be quite talented!
That is real not joke
Wow, Sky. Now you have a TU-154 addon in X-Plane 11 and now you just have to control the plane in the air just like Swiss001 👍
👍🏼
North Korea Air koryo Airlines are still operating the Russian Soviet built Tupolev 154B
Anyone else think that was Kelsey in the thumbnail?
X-Plane!
Why not say T-U 154 I
Instead of saying “Too 154”. It makes things confusing when you then start talking about AN-2, AN Too? It just sounds awkward IMO. Same with other aircraft designations. I always prefer saying the Manufacturer designation as individual letters rather than trying to make a name out of the letters. Just saying.
Exotic Soviet planes

Typical Russian landing, about 50 feet to the left of the centerline 😂
I love the tu-154. Flew on it once from Anchorage to Magadan.
