29.11.2017

Agata KarasevaThe name of Russian pilot Leonid Kulesh put into the Guinness World Record Book, TASS reports. He made a hundred dead leaves in his superlight plane Dragonfly which got its name for his light weight, speed and maneuvering.
 
The resident of Chita (Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia) set a record three years ago in summer 2014. This event happened at Kashtak airport near the city. Leonid Kulesh dedicated his dead leaves to the same trick performed by Russian pilot Konstantin Artseulov in autumn 1916. A year ago the record of Kulesh was put into Guinness World Record Book.
 
Leonid Kulesh is well-known in Chita. At the same time he is not a professional pilot. Leonid is a sculptor and architect. One of his projects is a sculpture to Alexander Nevsky established at railway station square in Chita.
