Photo Comment

After the re-unification of the two Germany's on 3 October 3 1990, the Luftwaffe saw itself operating an entire fleet of Soviet-built aircraft. This IL-62 is ex DDR-SEV, which had been an East German government VIP aircraft in Interflug colours. Its career with the Luftwaffe was short-lived, ending up with Alim-Air Lines in the mid 1990s as UK-86933. It was broken up in 2010.
