Fighter pilot Ivan Aleksandrovich Sharin. Lieutenant Colonel, 21 years of flight work and 26 years of calendar service in air defense aviation. (On the websites of Kosmopoisk, he is mistakenly called the Hero of the Soviet Union. But, he himself denied this information when I spoke to him on the phone).

For twenty-one years of flight work, he completed:

• on the Yak-18u aircraft - 193 departures;
• on the UTI MiG-15 aircraft - 755 flights;
• on the MiG-17 aircraft - 476 sorties;
• on the MiG-19p aircraft - 226 sorties;
• on a MiG-19s aircraft - 22 flights;
• on a Su-7u aircraft - 19 sorties;
• on the MiG-25pu aircraft - 148 sorties;
• on the MiG-25p aircraft - 368 sorties;
• on the MiG-23ub aircraft - 111 sorties;
• on a MiG-23m aircraft - 196 sorties;

Just in case, if anyone does not know, the MiG-25 is the world's fastest interceptor fighter, capable of accelerating up to 4 speeds of sound, up to 5000 km / h (although over 3000 is not recommended). In general, the elite of combat aviation.

Ivan Sharin himself, he first encountered a strange anomaly in 1971 at night in Perm. His plane was draped with a luminous net "30 by 30 arm thick", and he himself was partially paralyzed. When the landing gear was released, the net disappeared. I asked him on the phone what does "30 to 30" mean? He replied that it was centimeters. This is the size of the grid cells, and the thickness of the lines is about the size of a hand.

On my own I will add that it resembles the glowing manifestations of underwater UFOs - some moving patterns are visible on the surface of the water in the dark.

The second time he and the controller from the ground saw a giant UFO over a strategic missile base near Perm.

The third time an egg-shaped UFO returned from Afghanistan. He explains that he could not report on this, because they would immediately be commissioned, as happened with other daredevils. According to him, the situation has changed since 1981. They began to officially collect information about UFOs, that is, from that moment on, UFOs temporarily ceased to be considered insanity, because there was a lot of evidence from the military:

All this can also be read in his book "The Truth About Gagarin's Death". A brief description is here - his St. Petersburg telephone number is also indicated there for those wishing to purchase his book. To which I urge everyone.

In this lecture, he reports that two of his flight school classmates disappeared without a trace in the sky in peacetime 50 years ago. But he did not give their names. I contacted him by phone and he gave their specific names.

On the Kuril Islands, the MiG-17, piloted by Vasily Maistrenko, who had flown to intercept the border violator, disappeared into thin air. No debris or oil stains were found on the water. Submarines and divers were looking for him.

Near Nizhniy Tagil, Art. Lieutenant Ilyushkin with partner Yuri Levshin. Twin aircraft UTI MiG-15. There was a thunderstorm and from the ground we saw a strong flash in the sky. Either lightning, or an explosion.

Strange, but only the day before my conversation, the only mention of this tragedy appeared on the Internet:

5 JUNE 2014, 11:46

Yesterday it was 45 years since the MIG-15UTI fighter crashed near the village of Makhnevo, both pilots - Major Yuri Levshin and Lieutenant Nikolai Ilyushkin - were killed.

For a long time, the village did not know any details about the disaster, even the names of the pilots were carefully hidden.

In 2002, the Makhnev schoolchildren carried out research work and obtained detailed information about the disaster.

The fighter took off from the Salka military airfield, which is not far from Nizhny Tagil. Half an hour later, a message was received that the engine thrust had dropped sharply, and then communication with the crew was interrupted. In the morning, six kilometers from the village of Makhnevo, the wreckage of an aircraft was discovered … It turned out that a bird had got into the turbine of the engine. The pilots had the opportunity to eject and escape, but then an unguided fighter with a full tank of fuel would have crashed into the village.

As the director of the school, Tatyana Krayukhina, said, at the site of the tragedy, the children laid a capsule with a message to descendants. In the courtyard of the school, there is a small monument to the pilots who saved the village at the cost of their lives - every year on June 4, children lay flowers on it.

The miracle lies in the fact that if I had contacted Sharin 1 day earlier, then I would not have learned anything about the fate of these two heroically killed pilots. First and onlyinformation about them appeared on the Internet the day before our conversation!
