November 5, 20241 yr Impressive, one of the comments in Russian was saying the first roll was testing it out, not intending to takeoff, when the captain felt it could handle it he took off on the second roll, they didn’t raise the gear because it wasn’t flying very far and not going to a high altitude just staying low altitude, so I guess this was a short ferry flight, not sure why hopefully to refurbish it very cool find you have to appreciate the design of this aircraft and being able to fly after 10 years being mothballed Matthew Kane I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me
