Pilot Flies 'Convertible Jet'

This photo shows a stunt pilot flying a jet without its canopy for a Russian movie.

“The maximum speed I achieved on the jet plane without a canopy glass was around two times greater than speed of sound. While on this speed I even managed to pull out my fingers in glove for an inch or two outside - it became heated very fast because of immense friction force plane undergoes with the air.“, writes the pilot.
