Title: USB: new page with profiles of Tapani Post by: Massimo Tessitori on June 13, 2018, 08:06:34 AM Hi,
I've uploaded a page with photos and profiles of USB. http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/sb/tapani/usb/usb.htm (http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/sb/tapani/usb/usb.htm) Some samples: (http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/sb/tapani/usb/usb4-rpr.jpg) (http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/sb/tapani/usb/usb-red1-rpr.jpg) (http://massimotessitori.altervista.org/sovietwarplanes/pages/sb/tapani/usb/usb-dark12-lpr.jpg) Regards Massimo Title: Re: USB: new page with profiles of Tapani Post by: warhawk on June 13, 2018, 06:02:33 PM Some survived to be painted in three-tone template?
Very interesting One thing makes me curious. If the new open cockpit position was made for the flight instructor, how did the training take place between him and the trainee in the enclosed cockpit?.

some gesture language, I suppose. Besides the cockpits communicated inside, I wonder if the seat allowed the instructor to turn and move inside the nose.

Watch how the stick and rudders etc move, and communication by Gosport tube (or Soviet similar). There would probably be a limited number of gestures for specific case - "You have control" for example.
