Colonel Nikolai Skuridin has just back to service after vacation. On the morning of 4th July, he already had a flight at training aircraft, the next step was to make a flight in fully armed MiG-23M jet fighter. Skuridin was not rookie pilot - he had 1700 flight hours and he was 1st class pilot according to the Soviet Air Force class system.
He took off. As soon as he did, he noticed afterburner had spontaneously turned off, as well as that throttles catastrophically dropped. He told the dispatcher he is about to eject, dispatch confirmed, so colonel left the jet.
Both jet pilot and spectators expected jet to crash near the airfield, but it never did. Instead, engine went back to normal, so did the jet itself due to autopilot system. Jet started to climb, flying westward. As MiG-23’s IFF kept tone back, jet passed both Poland and Eastern Germany unnoticed.
1. The speaker is most likely a common man living in a town in Victoria. The fact I understand from the text is that, the speaker is a patriotic person. He is so sad about the destruction caused after, probably a war.
2. In my Opinion, this poem is trying to give a vivid picture of a place after a war, probably.
3. The speaker's tone towards the city is a pity as well as a humorous tone. His reference "Here are broken fingerbones of clay pipes" is a pitiful statement and his words "and mud is thick as meat".
4. I think the poem literally comes between the year 1990 - 1999. This is proved when he refers "air sweet as rust" as there were wars during that time in major parts of Asia.
5. The words mud is thick as meat, seed stained black, inner city's chalk, broken fingerbones of clay piles etc are some of the main humorous as well as unimaginable quotes made by the speaker in order to say about his feelings of the ruined city.
Hope it helps you...

The main reason why the Supreme Court’s decision in Gibbons v. Ogden was significant because it reaffirmed the power of the United States federal government to regulate commerce, which included Navigation. This expanded federal power over the states.
