T-50 has successfully performed maiden flight from Dzemgi airfield with Sukhoi test pilot Sergey Bogdan at controls.
Take off at 11.19 local time, landing at 12.05 (UTC+10.00).

We should thank grOOmi for his real-time coverage of events under scrutiny of cold and security.

It's hard to name another aviation event that has been awaiten so eagerly by thousands of aviation enthusiasts around the world.

I should go and drink some vodka.

Photos and video will appear in several hours. My recorder is ready.

Love you all, guys.

The Flaptor has flown and it looks cool as hell. It's also the design that was shown at the Saturn website a few months back.

Watching that video, that isn't the first flight, that's from earlier, obviously, of just lifting the nose wheel off the ground.

If I didn't know any better, I would have said that PAKFA had the longest product cycle of any weapon in Russian millitary history. It's been 25 years since the 5th generation program started.

Congratulations to everyone who has poured his hopes and work into this machine, but damit I wanna know already....

Seems good looking from those angles, I look forward to more photos.

Anyone want to bet how many get produced in this day and age?
