Wg Cdr Talyan walks away from the dias after handing over the Form 700. He is wearing a KKO partial pressure suit and full face helmet that was introduced for pilots of Mach 2 aircraft at the beginning of the 1960's. The suit was worn by MiG-21 pilots for high altitude flights and has been retained by the Foxbat pilots during its service.
