The airshow "I Choose the Sky" took place in Kazan: spectators watched the flights of the Ansat, the famous white swan, and swifts.

      The highest aerobatics - the mastery and power of the Russian aviation industry were demonstrated today in the sky over the capital. The airshow "I Choose the Sky" took place in Kazan. Spectators watched the flights of the Ansat, the famous white swan, the Swifts, and the Tu-214. There was much excitement on the ground as well - Maxim Bakharov will continue. It seems that you can touch it with your hand. The passenger Tu-214 flies so low. And if the fuel gets close to zero, this giant will arrive - the Il-78 refueling aircraft with dozens of tons of fuel. Five minutes. The flight is normal. Spectators observe every turn and high-class trick of the birds. The mood today is aviation, the mood today is soaring. Thousands, if not tens of thousands, of Kazan residents and guests of the city chose the sky today. And any takeoff begins from the ground, and it is no less interesting here. Anyone who wished could try themselves in the role of a pilot. The opportunity was provided by a mobile recruitment point for military service. It is also interesting for those preparing to enter a university. For example, at KAI. The institute demonstrates its successes not only in this tent but also in the air. One of the most beloved holidays for Kazan residents, "I Choose the Sky," takes place in Kazan every year. While the helicopter's blades are waving, the pilot waves to the festival guests from the window. Pink, white, and red connected hearts testify that the Kazan Family Center is one of the most romantic places in Kazan. And what could be more romantic than airplanes and the sky? Especially if an answer to the main question of a young family from Tatarstan is about to appear in it. Seven years ago, a couple walked to the Kazanka with the same trepidation in wedding attire, and today is no less significant. The very Ansat helicopter will release paint for them. If it's blue, it means the family will soon welcome a boy. If it's pink, a girl will be born. The sky turned pink. The family waited for this moment for seven years. The Ansat helicopter has completed its mission for today. It frees the sky for the legendary Swifts. Six beautiful MiG-29s perform aerobatic figures. It looks especially spectacular with music.

      And indeed, it is unlikely to catch up with the Swifts, gaining speed of 700 kilometers per hour. This is the beauty that spectators see in the sky, and from the height of the Swift's flight, pilots enjoy this stunning view of Kazan.
