Voice over intercom (in Russian accent): "Comrade passengers, please put seat backs and trays in upright position, place head between knees and hands over back of head. Shortly to turn on 'bend over and kiss arse goodbye' sign. Have a nice flight"

Yeah ... one of these Su37's ..... he " thinks " he's in a dogfight with one.
He's " pulling up " from the Hard Deck .... trying to get away....
Ah yes, the TU-334. Abandoned after nearly 10 years of mucking about after the break up of the old Soviet Union and only delivering two flying examples. Replaced by the Sukhoi "SuperJet 10-95" in recent times at much lower cost to a prospective buyer.
It, too, likes flying at a high angle of incidence. Think Sukhoi and its incredible SU-27 "Fulcrum", along with the ubiquitous aerobatic contest aircraft, the SU-26, and you have to know that Sukhoi is pretty clever in the aeronautical design department.
Looking at the crowds I would say it was at an airshow.
They do that sort flying at them.
I have seen manouvers worse than that at Farnborough in the UK
Cheers
Err... I think I have mileage on many of their code sharing partners in South America, Africa, Middle East, SE and Central Asia... oh, did I mention the USA, a lot of dodgey airlines there as well... and then there's that sus-Kiwi airline, can't remember its name
I agree with Ron, looks like he has done a fairly high speed low level run and done a full power on pull the wheel/stick back, looks like he is out of control, but dont reckon, this is a standard sort of effort for an airshow.
