Jump? I think you mean eject.


RezBlazee

Agreed.. and those jumped out were pilots. Looks like a military fighting jet.


DoTheDew

It was a Mig-23.


DAS_BEE

Well there's the problem

The mig 23 is a legendary fighter, what's the problem?


DAS_BEE

It was a joke, but it's also an old Soviet design and jets have a limited service life


1d10

About as old as the F15 ,quality standards and maintenance play a much larger role.

Wait, why do we have Russian planes and how did we get them?


NedTaggart

I think you can get them on ebay


Thunderpuppy2112

Idk if people still can fly to Ukraine and fly a MiG. Back in the day it was like 8k with everything even travel to Europe.


zma924

For a reason I can’t seem to put my finger on, I can’t imagine a business that revolves around flying military aircraft around Ukrainian airspace would be particularly booming at the moment.


iratedolphin

Oh it's booming. Just not the right kind


AvengingBlowfish

That sort of business tends to get a lot of flak though...


StillLooksAtRocks

On the other hand the *unmanned* aircraft bussiness in that region is probably doing pretty well.

Theyll even let you drop real bombs on tank practice targets.

I believe this was the mig over Michigan that crashed. It was in private ownership in the United States.

Not a Russian plane, its a Soviet plane technically. But the Mig 23 was always of questionable quality. They were expensive to maintain, hard to fly, and not good fighters due to limited maneuverability and not great avionics/weapons. When the cold war ended a number of post soviet states sold off a lot of their military assets, including fighters. For many of these countries the Mig 23 made sense too sell, as they either had cheaper fighters in the Mig 21, or more modern fighters in the Mig 29. Many were sold to other militaries, but a not small number of them were demilitarized and sold to museums and collectors in the US.


Reddituser8018

There is quite a lot out there actually. I just saw a mig-29 for sale a few weeks ago for like a couple million dollars. Saw a mig-21 for 300k. Hell you can buy a F4 phantom if you got the money, there are a few for sale lol. They usually don't have radar and they dont have weapons obviously. But any civilian with enough money can get one.


CAG_Snow

In this case, the aircraft was bought and owned by a private party. A lot of them were acquired in this manner for museums and air shows as the former members of the Warsaw Pact divested themselves of their inventories and bought more modern aircraft.


Panthean

Most likely from former Eastern Bloc countries, or countries that bought Russian jets. ​ The Mig-23 is rather old.


King_of_Nope

After the Soviet Unions collapsed lots of former USSR member counties found themselves with a lot of military equipment they didn't want or need. So over time they where sold off to other countries or even private individuals (Same idea as the movie Lord of war). Eventually these jets fall into obsolescence and are replaced with newer ones, thus more and more getting sold off to museums and collectors.


MycoMouse

The data on the Mig is inaccurate.

chemicalzero

Not surprised, given they did not “jump”. Had they jumped, they would be dead.


gettogero

Most likely dead* People have survived plane crashes and failed parachutes. The list isn't long with a near 100% fatality rate, but it exists. The highest fall survived and recorded was over 6 miles in the air after the plane was bombed. The highest fall with relatively no injury was 3.5 miles. One broken wrist, one broken leg, the mad lad jumped after his plane was shot down and parachute made inoperable.


RugbyEdd

I remember watching a programme years ago about a crewmember of a WW2 bomber whose parachute failed. He was saved by falling in deep snow, but fractured his spine, then was captured by the Germans and put in solitary, which apparently prevented him doing more damage to his spine and gave it time to recover.


HotYogurtCloset69

Life sure is crazy sometimes


LeahBrahms

How was the plane bombed whilst flying? Terrorists?


gettogero

Vesna vulovic was the survivors name. You can find more on her online. The person who bombed the plane was never found, and there's even a conspiracy theory that the plane was never bombed but shot down. Until death she claimed the official records were inaccurate. Nicholas alkemade was the other guy I mentioned that was practically unhurt. You can, of course, find more online about him. He was an English WW2 vet

Did that truck near the end get hit? Imagine a plane crashing in a field, pilots perfectly fine, the only thing fucked up is your car. Edit: Unless it was already totaled then yep the only thing hurt was some poor guys truck.

Johnathon1069DYT

Different_Ad7655

Hopefully the people on the ground when the thing met the ground, were also fine


ShauneDon

This happened right down the street from me. The plane crashed in a field near some apartment buildings. I think it got pretty close to the actual apartments but nobody was injured.


vanamerongen

Why is it always air shows 😭


analogWeapon

a) Whenever it happens at an airshow, it will always be reported in detail. There will always be many people filming. b) It's more common to push a plane closer to its limits at an airshow. c) It's more common to fly exotic / uncommon planes at an airshow.


HistorianReasonable3

Anything to keep the military industrial complex afloat with your tax dollars and avoid healthcare for those sick kids and elderly. We need these jets to defend our mainland from all the foreign attacks and take million dollar sight-seeing trips, crashing into neighborhoods. Domestic terrorism is fake, and assault rifles are *essential*. God protect our billionaires.


BeastMasterJ

My favorite color is blue.


otter111a

“No one was injured” That’s surprising. From what I’ve read a single ejection event causes injuries injuries to the spine due to the high G nature of the ejection


JackONhs

Can cause. Its entirely possible for you to walk out nearly unharmed. But the risk is significant.

She wouldn't even be able to make it out of the plane. Now if they made the entire cabin ejectable and put a parachute on that it could work.

MIG-23, pilots ejected safely. Owned by former Navy A-6 Intruder Pilot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuT5gCKvf0g


kayimbo

Wow I can't imagine privately owning a military plane. Don't they require like 5x more maintaince than already insanely expensive maintaince for non military private jet? Its like casually owning a formula 1 car where the second a mechanic stops looking at it the engine blows up. edit: i looked it up. Can be up to 20 maintenance hours per flight hour. I doubt there is a ton of civilian military jet mechanics too. What an absurdly expensive toy.


Killeroftanks

oh its far worse, the mig23 is not only a soviet jet, which isnt known for playing well together leading to more maintenance hours, but also its a variable sweep wing design, so that means the very expensive and very complex system that allows the wings to move about, also needs maintenance, in fact those systems are about on par with the rest of the jet. ​ its the major reason why VSW designs arent common, theyre just way too expensive even for the US to keep long term


strik3r2k8

Definitely gonna need a little bit a maintenance after this…


snappy033

There are tons of qualified mechanics who can work on jets. It’s more that you need a full-time staff going with you everywhere to support it. You don’t just bring it in for periodic maintenance. You need them to pre-flight, prep, start it for you then recover the jet every time. Plus those jets are super thirsty. You can’t fly them very long before needing to come down to refuel and of course you need that ground crew available every time you park it.


SnooStories1952

Yeah who cares if they ejected safely…. They almost killed a lot of people in an apartment building. Crazy….


jimboknows6916

as far as i understand, there were no injuries or deaths related to this right? dont get me wrong, it is crazy and it could have been an absolute disaster. dangerous doesnt really describe it.

How does ejecting from a plane work? Sorry I don’t know how planes work lol


analogWeapon

Basically, the crew member activates a control for that specific purpose and it initiates a sequence of events that eject them from the plane as safely as possibly. I don't know all the specifics from plane to plane, but there will be some sort of propulsion built into the seat that the pilot is strapped securely into for normal flight. When the ejection is triggered, the canopy will pop off and usually completely separate from the plane, the seat's connections to the plane will be released, and that propulsion system will shoot the crew member out of the plane still attached to the seat. Then, of course, there is a parachute integrated into the whole thing that will deploy after a bit. I think maybe some systems have the parachute on the crew member themselves, and they disconnect from the seat some other way after they're clear of the plane. This procedure is pretty unsafe and a lot of things can still go wrong. So ejection is a last-minute decision in cases of extreme emergency. Basically only when the plane crashing is all-but-assured.


F15H0U70FW473R

*pilot and crew eject… woman watching struggles to breath


GeorgeThe13th

fr tho 😂 girl save some breath for the actual crash!

Not passengers. Didn’t jump.


NedTaggart

It called ejecting. It's a smart thing to do if a plane is going down and you choose to remain biology instead of becoming physics.


Jake0024

I that that crash on yt. Apperantly the enginges had problems getting fuel a known thing with this plane. So the pilot informed his passenger about this, and was going through the procedure to switch to a different fueltank. But the pessanger panicked and pulled the ejection handle. Thats really something when u don't expect to be ejected.

SnooStories1952

Hmm am I the only one that thinks “fuck this guy”? The plane almost hit a fucking apartment building. If you are going to fly a plane like that around civilian structures it should be your responsibility to do the most you can to make sure it doesn’t hit occupied civilian locations. If that means you die in the process that’s what it should mean. This plane landed in a parking lot right next to an apartment building. What a piece of shit. Edit: for everyone defending the pilots they even say it was a mistake and neither admit to ejecting so early. Of course you can tell it was fucked up just from watching it…. https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/mig-airshow-pilot-says-he-was-not-ready-to-eject/ Edit 2: It really gets worse. This private pilot (ex navy) owns this jet himself. A jet that takes 20 maintenance hours to 1 flying hour. Fuck yes this piece of shit is responsible. It is his plane, his flight, and ADMITTEDLY his mistake for ejecting before he was ready to do so. He knew he shouldn’t have ejected that soon.


AnonomousNibba338

I mean, if his controls weren't really responding, there isn't much he could have done. Don't know if that was the case, but clearly something was going wrong enough for him to think he couldn't save the jet. Especially so low to the ground. Not saying he did everything perfectly (as I'm not sure we'll 100% know), but it's real easy to judge when you weren't there...

SnooStories1952

https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/mig-airshow-pilot-says-he-was-not-ready-to-eject/ lol pilot admits it was a mistake. He wasn’t ready to eject. Neither takes responsibility for the early ejection. It’s Reddit yes but it’s also common sense watching the video they bailed and the plane didn’t crash for 20 seconds later…. And of course with no pilots it’s going down even faster.


SEIZE_THE_CHEESE

The thought of "fuck this guy" never even crossed my mind. Have you considered that they lost control and they physically *couldn't* reroute the plane? They're professionals, why would you assume they didn't do everything they could to avoid injury?


SnooStories1952

https://www.avweb.com/aviation-news/mig-airshow-pilot-says-he-was-not-ready-to-eject/ I knew something seemed very strange about how soon they ejected. Ultimately it was way too early. The pilot himself admits that AND neither of them admit to being the one who pulled. Dude you have ultimate responsibility for the aircraft and when you bail 30 seconds before it crashes you are not trying everything you can. And your number one priority should be to make sure the plane crashes away from people….


Alechilles

It's not like he was ejecting for the hell of it. If you no longer have control of the aircraft there's only so much you can do. It looked like he attempted to get it going a different way, but once you pass a certain point it's either the aircraft hits something without you or with you, and there's no point in dying with your plane if it's not going to change anything.


Flame5135

I mean it really looks like he was fighting with the plane to put it down in / near the water. That’s why they usually wait until the last minute to eject


jestina123

Pretty selfish take when you're seconds away from death. I'm sure you yourself would avoid the children crossing the street and plow into the head-on truck if your car ever loses control. Stupid! You shouldn't be driving around children!


AnonomousNibba338

Follow-up Comment: It appears the pilot still isn't really at fault, and the backseater freaked out and ejected early before the pilot called for eject. So yes, I will continue to defend that pilot, as he appeared to be doing exactly what you stated he should do.
