DID YOU KNOW? 💡 The Pugachev's Cobra maneuver, named after Russian test pilot Viktor Pugachev, is one of the most challenging aerobatic feats in aviation. In this maneuver, the aircraft pitches sharply upward, almost to a vertical position, before quickly leveling off. It requires exceptional skill, precise timing, and mastery of flight controls. Despite its difficulty, the Pugachev's Cobra is a visually stunning display of agility and power, often performed at airshows to captivate audiences.
