Air Show to celebrate hundred`s anniversary of Russia`s aviation.
ST. PETERSBURG, August 15 (Itar-Tass) -- St. Petersburg renews the air
shows, which used to be very popular in the city in the early XX century.
An air show devoted to the hundred's anniversary of Russia's aviation
and the Aviation Day will be organised on Sunday. The show will be part of
the international air show InterAeroCom which is on now.
Aerobatics group RUS and members of the Neva aero club will take part
in the show.
In the beginning of the XX century, Russian 'fliers' demonstrated
their skills on Farmans and Newpors.
Exactly 100 years earlier, Russia's aviation started, when
foreign-made jets were bought. Two flying schools were founded in Gatchina
/near St. Petersburg/ and in Sevastopol /in Crimea/.
