The team of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU "Digital Engineering" won the Russian Ultralight Aviation Sports Championship on the improved aircraft "MIKS-500" (modified X-32 MIKS) in the discipline "Microplane-1". The aircraft was upgraded as part of the "Priority-2030" program. The competition was held from August 4 to 8, 2025, at the Seredka airfield in the Pskov region. The event was organized by the All-Russian public organization "United Federation of Ultralight Aviation Sports of Russia" with the support of the Ministry of Sports of the Russian Federation.

The purpose of the championship is to identify the strongest athletes to form a list of candidates for the Russian Federation sports teams to prepare for and participate in international sports competitions, as well as to prepare a sports reserve.

A total of 12 teams from St. Petersburg, Vladimir, Novgorod, Omsk, Pskov, Tula regions and the Republic of Bashkortostan took part in the championship. Over the course of several days, pilots demonstrated their aircraft control skills, including "deck landing", landing with the engine off, terrain orientation skills and the ability to remain calm in difficult flight situations.

The championship participants competed in the following sports disciplines.

"Deltalet-1" "Microplane-1" "Microplane-2" "Autogyro"

The team of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU is commander Alexander Rodin, navigator Vladislav Balashov and technician Egor Seryakov. The athletes study at the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Transport of SPbPU and have been improving their engineering skills for over a year as laboratory assistants at the Experimental Design Bureau of the PISh SPbPU.

The winners and prize winners were determined by the sum of points scored based on the results of all flights. The team of polytechnicians made 10 flights and eventually scored 3080 points, showing the best result in their discipline. The aircraft commander Alexander Rodin will be awarded the rank of candidate for master of sports.

We had very intensive training organized by the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU. The morning shift started at 5 am, and we were in the sky until 12 pm. After that, there were theoretical classes on aircraft piloting, navigation, radio exchange, meteorology and other subjects. The evening shift lasted from 5 pm to 8 pm. During the entire training period, we gained significant practical experience, flew more than 100 hours of flight time and received a lot of theoretical and practical knowledge from our mentors, the staff of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU. The crew managed to get to know the aircraft better, participate in the processes of modeling aerodynamics and strength, evaluate the flight characteristics and advantages of the aircraft, which allowed us to develop a strategy for winning the Russian championship. Yes, the weather conditions during the championship were difficult, the opponents were experienced and strong, and we participated in the competition for the first time. But we and our mentors believed in success and made every effort to achieve it, said aircraft commander Alexander Rodin.

Teams from Omsk and Pskov regions took second and third place in the “Microplane-1” discipline.

The improvement of the MIX-500 aircraft was carried out by specialists from the Design Bureau of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU under the leadership of Mikhail Korchkov.

Engineers from the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” developed mathematical and computer models of the aircraft and, using the digital platform for the development and application of digital twins CML-Bench® (developed by the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU), performed a series of digital (virtual) tests of the X-32 MIX aircraft of the ASTC “AEROMIX” flying club on the aerodynamics and strength of the aircraft, based on the results of which it was modified to improve its aerodynamic characteristics. As a result, fairings for the wheels of the front and main landing gear were installed, a profile was installed to reduce aerodynamic drag on the wing struts. This was achieved in the shortest possible time, in just 1 month. All work was carried out within the framework of the key technological area (KNTH-1) “Systemic Digital Engineering” of the Priority-2030 university support program. The work carried out is the first stage in the creation of the CML-Aeroplane. In 2025-2026. We have planned to develop a digital twin of the aircraft based on the CML-Bench® digital platform, as well as to manufacture a prototype. Based on the created digital twin, advanced composite materials and advanced manufacturing technologies will be introduced into the aircraft design; the weight will be reduced while maintaining rigidity and strength characteristics; aerodynamic characteristics will be improved; the design and power scheme of the aircraft will be changed, – explained Mikhail Korchkov.

The listed changes mean a complete redesign of the aircraft. In the future, the aircraft will be converted into an unmanned aerial vehicle for aerial chemical work.

As for the winning team, the future plans of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU include participation in competitions on an aircraft of its own design.

Fontanka.ru conducted a study of the results of the admission campaign to St. Petersburg universities under the quota for participants in the special military operation and their children. An analysis of data from enrollment orders and competition lists showed that the first place in terms of the number of those enrolled is occupied by Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University.

In 2025, 252 people were admitted to SPbPU under a separate quota, which is 1.7 times more than last year. 104 of them were admitted without entrance examinations, which indicates the significant support provided by the university to this category of applicants.

Polytechnic University ranks first in St. Petersburg and fifth in Russia in terms of the number of applicants enrolled in this category. But what is important here is not the numbers, but the development of an individual educational trajectory and support for such students throughout the entire period of study, noted Vice-Rector for Educational Activities Lyudmila Pankova.

Such a high demand for educational programs of our university speaks, first of all, about the level of trust of applicants and their families in the faculty of the Polytechnic University. After all, they have an important task – to ensure a high level of training taking into account the current background of the applicant, to analyze progress, to provide opportunities for development, that is, to provide a comprehensive individual approach, which is quite a serious challenge on such a scale. We strive to provide equal opportunities for obtaining a quality education to all our students, supporting them in various life situations, – commented Vice-Rector for Human Resources Policy Maria Vrublevskaya.

This year, 2,028 people entered St. Petersburg universities under a separate quota for SVO participants and their children, which is almost twice as many as last year.

More detailed results of the study can be found by link.

The first student service squad of the Polytechnic University "Altair" has once again set off to conquer the south of Russia. This is already the eighth working season for the guys. The fighters and candidates work in the federal territory "Sirius", where they were in 2021, 2022 and 2023. But this summer they found themselves in an unexpected place – the amusement park "Sochi Park".

Sochi Park opened in 2014 as the first theme park in Russia and an alternative to Disneyland. The park is imbued with the atmosphere of Russian folk tales and consists of several theme zones where fairy tale characters meet: Baba Yaga, Koschei, the Sea Princess, the Learned Cat and their friends.

The fighters and candidates work as amusement ride controllers, amusement restaurant operators, photo service sales clerks, souvenir shops, and fast food outlets. There is even a position of arcade game operator assistant, and all of this is very different from the usual positions of maids, waiters, housekeepers, and kitchen workers for the squad. But still, every day the guys try to provide quality service and perform their duties well.

"In our fourth year, we went to work at Sochi Park. It's great because the work of a maid is monotonous, it's interesting to try something new," said former detachment commissioner Irina Iskortseva. "But for those who came for their first season, I think it's also better than working in a hotel, because you feel like an adult, full-fledged employee: you open the point yourself, communicate with guests, solve problems, close the shift. And I think it's really cool for beginners, especially for those who are working for the first time in their life. It's responsibility and valuable experience working with people."

Half of the work season is already behind us. During this time, the student service team "Altair" managed to gain unique experience and learn a lot from scratch. The students attentively serve guests and try to make their summer trip to "Sochi Park" as pleasant and eventful as possible.
