Little Kid's First Flying Lesson from Pilots of America Message Board by RJM62
During the summer, I dropped my lady friend's son and granddaughter off at the beach a few miles south of the airport, and then went and took a lesson while they swam. My instructor thought it would be nice if we gave them a bit of a show (our practice area is right there), so we did some maneuvers.

Red Flag and the SU-30MKI from IAGblog Podcasts by iagblog

The Russians wanted to make sure the Indians did not turn on some of the plane's features to keep this away from American sensors. But in the end, thanks to YouTube, you listen to a really frank assessment of the Indian Air Force (and other tidbits) at Red Flag.
