Adult honeyeater weighs an average of 8-16 kg with a body length of 60-77 cm (this is not counting the 25-centimeter tail). Outwardly, it resembles a badger with its elongated body and short muscular legs. However muzzle have honeyeater, unlike badger, obtuse, ear sinks there is no, on front paws there are 4-5-centimeter curved bears, and skin very elastic and thick - on neck she reaches thickness 6 mm.
In 1978, on the proposal of the engineer of the production and technical laboratory of the Central air base N. A. Pushkarev, a special roller-type descent device "SU-R" was developed, which significantly increased the safety of descents by paratroopers-firefighters and the efficiency of landing groups.
By that time, in addition To the mi-4 helicopter, descents were performed from Mi-8 helicopters. In 1972 year on technical demands Central air base specifically for parachutists-firefighters was created and introduced parachute system "Lesnik", thanks to which substantially has improved the accuracy of and security landing.
The basis for this was taken sports training parachute T-4 series 4M. ""Forester" refers to the so-called slit parachute.
Thanks to the reactive effect (the air passes through special slots in the dome), it is easy for the parachutist-firefighter to move in a horizontal direction and turn around. Jump on the "Forester" is performed from a height of 600 meters.
The introduction of the "Forester" was not easy. Many forestry workers criticized them, believing that they require a parachutist very high qualifications.
In 1985, a special purpose gliding parachute system "Lesnik-2" was developed and implemented, allowing even more accurate landing on limited areas in the forest and performing jumps at wind speeds up to 12 m/sec, which made this parachute system almost "all-weather".
Watching the jumps, the correspondent of the magazine "Around the world" asked the Chairman of the selection Committee E. p. Davydenko: "Why do we need a new "Forester", if the former "Forester" showed himself perfectly at forest fires?".
Davydenko replied: "Now more and more demands are placed on our service. To extinguish the fire in time, to eliminate as many foci as possible is our contribution to the protection of the environment.
And if the old "Forester" is not always possible to land near the deep taiga fire, the parachute that you saw on the tests, almost solves this problem. And from here as a result – hundreds of additional hectares of the saved wood".
Simultaneously with parachute "Lesnik-2" was developed and tested a new option arm parachutist-firefighter " SPP-2." It was made in the form of a jumpsuit made of double strong fabric with light but strong inserts that made the suit buoyant. There was a large protective collar and a protective helmet with a folding mesh. The risk of injury when jumping on the forest was significantly reduced.
On April 25, 1986, the Chernobyl disaster occurred. Avialesookhrana took an active part in the liquidation of the consequences of the Chernobyl accident, sending there about 200 employees and a large number of equipment.
Used aircraft with spillway devices, which was at the time equipped with only Avialesookhrana. For the work on elimination of the Chernobyl disaster, the head of the Krasnoyarsk air base N. And. Kovalev, inspector of flight-production services from the Central airbase, A. I. Glebov, head of the Ural airbase V. S. Tarasevich was awarded the Order of Courage.
Artists began to actively address the topic of aviation security. Writer Vladimir Chivilikhin devoted a wonderful story to aviation Protection "Christmas Trees-winder" (1964), writer Yuri Sbitnev reflected the work of firefighters in the novel "Fire in the white night" (1975), subsequently filmed. The famous documentary film Director Felix Sobolev took about Avialesookhrana documentary film "Running the flame" (1973).
In 80-ies in the system of aviation protection of forests worked more than 8 thousand parachutists-firefighters and firefighters, skillfully eliminate in the early stages of burning up to 70% of the fires.
Up to 600 aircraft a year were leased from the airlines. The flight hours were 110-115 thousand for the fire season. With the help of aviation, about 85% of forest fires were detected in a timely manner. The average area of the fire was 22-27 hectares.
InterBase maneuvering by the parachute fire service was carried out throughout the Soviet Union. Centralization of forces and means, financial and other resources in the system of aviation protection of forests allowed to work with the highest efficiency.
