Learn to manage a real aircraft, climb the air in the aerotrub and wear on the shoulder × 25-kilogram parachute I had an actress Mary meadow on the set of the series "Crane in the sky." This is the history of the life and love of the test pilot ASI Solntseva during the creation of the world's first supersonic passenger liner "Zhuravl". I found out interesting details of the shooting process.
The events that occur in the series are covered by almost two decades: since the 60s of the last century and ending with 70s. It was the time of creating fundamentally new samples of aviation equipment, in which flight characteristics exceeded everything that was before.
The audience was able to watch the Life of the Sun Salt Test pilot in the age period from 17 to 35 years. Young schoolgirl meets his love in a city festival, which is dedicated to the first flight of a person in space. This is the future pilot of Jurah Thunder, which is popular with girls. Romantic Asya immediately falls in love with a charismatic young man, although at that moment she is close friends with the Yasha Spruse-son of the aircraft designer. He considers it his own destiny and even helps her prepare for exams. But the girl goes after the heart ...
The role of that very much Yuri Gromov played the star of "youths", actor Mikhail Gavrilov, and Yasha Spassky - Philip Gorostein. Actress Maria Lugovova is well known for roles in the series "Better than people", "Murka" and others. By the way, after Murki, the artist received many sentences, where it was necessary to get into the form, but she was waiting for his special project. And waited.
In the series you can also see a lot of stars. This is Boris Nevzorov, Sergey Pustopalis, Valentina Telichkin and others.
Olga Cabo, who played the role of Rimma Spasskaya, admitted that she quickly found a common language with young actors on the set. And with Maria Lugovoy, quite friendly divided one acting car

Of course, to prepare for the role of a pilot girl Mary meadow had a rather scrupulously. From the very first shooting day on the site there were experts, who every day gave her all new and new information about not easy craft. So by the end of the shooting, she already knew a lot about aviation.
Actresses also had to fly on real aircraft. And on various. At first, the creators of the paintings wanted to plant for the steering wheel of Dupler, but the leading leader expressed the desire to participate in this experiment herself. And in the end, she realized its first flight on the site in the cabin without glazed cradle! And at the site of the first pilot there was a star of aviation.
"During the filming, I flew on several aircraft. It was all just incredible! We performed the loop, we had a free fall - yes no carousel with such a thing will compare, - shared emotions of meadow. - I literally captured the spirit from the feeling of flight. I was also entrusted to dispersed the plane: I launched all the engines, he was laughed and then drove on the plane along the dispersal strip. In addition, I was taught to brake the plane after landing. "
At the heart of Asi also fought Yasha Spassky performed by Philip Korenstein

Also, the artist had to feel like a parachute. No, from a height of several thousand meters, she, of course, did not jump, but to put the equipment for jumping to her still had to. Moreover, the weight of the parachute and the entire gear was 25 kilograms. And this despite the fact that the actress herself weighs 50! In severe outfit, she jumped from a height of two meters on mats. Maria did not hide that she was a little scary.
Overcome yourself actress and during filming on simulators. It is no secret that far from everyone can withstand training on special simulators for pilots, where people are tied by arms and legs, and then spin in different directions. The meadow immediately admitted to the director that she was not all well with the vestibular apparatus, but Sergey Komarov convinced Mary, which is better than her, no one will succeed. As a result, the actress said so much that her body calmly painted a difficult test. "I even didn't say anything," the leading role was admitted. By the way, another test is a flight in Aerotruba - passed without any problems.
And of course, in such pictures, a big responsibility falls on the shoulders of the artists, which create the illusion of the reality of the atmosphere in the film. So, to show the 60s of the last century, I had to clean the entire modern entourage from the frame: to mask in homes air conditioners and plastic windows. At the same time, the audience saw all four time in the series, although the shooting process lasted only from September to December. As it often happens, some summer scenes, for example, a dating of the main characters on the beach, were able to remove only in November, so the actors had to fall out. To make yourself should not tremble from the cold, the artist could not, so under the summer dress she had insulation, and under the bedroom lay ... the electric car!

As for aircraft, they were real. During the shooting process, the airfields could be seen "An-2" and "An-12", "Il-62" and "Yak-18", and of course, Biplane "PO-2", in which he climbed the heroine Mary meadow. For filming directly flights chosen the airport "Zhukovsky. By the way, the work of the operators was one of the most difficult, because they needed to be removed inside a small close aircraft. For example, in the 'Tu-144 "camera with a chamber barely placed.
The actress itself admitted that he was never afraid to fly on airplanes. "I know just how they are arranged, which is inside," said Maria. - My husband and I love to travel. What is interesting, literally recently we talked about where we fly the next time, and now no one can answer this question. And now it is especially worth hoping that everything will pass, we will again be able to travel and rejoice ... "
