Tu-214SR - Russia's modern version of Looking Glass. Been flying about two years now. They have at least two flying.

Although we tend to think of a plane flying loops in a vertical manner, loops can also be horizontal, flat, like a loop in a river. A circular path.

When I was with TACAMO these were called "orbits".

Holding position with a constant banking turn.

It is nearly trademark for any airborne Command Post.

The Tu-214 is a ripoff of the 757. The difference is it runs on vodka.
