This is the video of landing in Russian passenger plane TU-154, it’s something like Boeing 757.

The guy to the right is a trainee pilot, guy from the right constantly buzzes him, but they landed ok.

Moscow From Bird Sight

Russian guy Letchik Leha works as a pilot in one of air companies.

He sometimes makes photos right from pilot’s cabin when he as a pilot flies with a crew.

I don’t know is he allowed to do this or not, but here are some of his photos.

This is Moscow city at night and his landing on a heavy passenger airliner to one of Moscow airports – there are a few airports in Moscow which population is almost ten million people.

By the way the flights above the Moscow itself are prohibited by Russian law so all the airports are not inside the city itself but near Moscow and in order to make a landing pilot must make a right curve not to crossing air space of Moscow itself.

Moscow planning is made in form of giant circles - there are three bigger circles - wide roads around the city so that you could find a suitable exit for yourself when you drive thru Moscow.
