FEMALE PILOTS ARE GUARDING THE SKIES IN LITVYAK WW2 MOVIE TEASER ON LEGENDARY RUSSIAN FEMALE FIGHTER PILOT
LITVYAK MOVIE TEASER
ON A RUSSIAN FEMALE PILOT
The movie will be out soon in cinemas
Coming from Russia today is the first, very enticing, teaser for LITVYAK (Литвяк) war movie about Lydia Litvyak, a Soviet fighter pilot. Hero. In the world ranking of female combat pilots - the first in line. Her name has been there since August 1943. And probably forever. In almost eighty years of the past, none of the female aces has come close to such a combat score. Unless, of course, you do not count Katerina Budanova, a fellow soldier and Lily's best friend. Katya is the second line. Their regiment flew Yak-1 fighters. Covered attack aircraft, transport workers and ground troops. They fought over Stalingrad, Rostov, they met in battles with German fighters, bombers and reconnaissance aircraft. They returned from battle with empty tanks and holes, fell on enemy territory, burned and landed on their belly, saved friends, suffered losses, were injured and returned to duty again. They won and became legends. On August 1, 1943, Lilya Litvyak was less than 22 years old. On that day, her plane took off for the last time and remained in the sky forever. Led by Polina Chernishova, the film will be out soon in cinemas. Evgeniy Tkachuk, Petr Rykov and Ivan Brovin also star.
Allison may like this one. She was pretty excited to watch our Blue Angels do their show in Wisconsin a few weeks back and had to cheer when they mentioned that one of the 6 was female. She's had an interest in aviation for a few years now and talks about getting a pilots license often.
No, she doesn't want to be Eve and join the military, though that would be her best training and a cost effective way to learn for future employment. We don't encourage that though. She can find a flight school and learn that way if she's serious about it in the future.
It is trendy in my country for celebrities to go to a pilot course, but I don't know what they fly after that as we are too poor for rich people to have their airplanes, I don't think that even Novak Djokovic has one.
I have a friend who doesn’t have a plane himself but flies and makes good money for UPS. I have another friend that is taking a year off to get a pilot license and he’ll probably end up with a small plane, though it’s really not common for anyone, rich or not, to have their own planes here.
We have under five airports in the country, and our national flight company is currently falling apart. They can only fly small planes for one or two people.

I saw a Russian miniseries about the "night Witches"(as the Germans called them) but I didn't like it that much.
ReplyDeleteHope this one won't disappoint you like that one.
Deletewow that reminds me of Tom Cruise in Top Gun :-) A cool woman!
ReplyDeleteShe is much more powerful given that she did not have all them stuntmen and crew like Cruise.
