In 1993, we needed to land at Petropavlovsk for an adventure that remains forever burn in our memoires. Between skiing and paragliding, we did everything and Russians who accompanied us were discovering the joy of biplace flights. Evenings were copiously drunk!
Ride down a volcano in activity to the ocean side !
