Photo Comment

Flying on the spacious IL-86 was always a pleasure. Boarding is through a baggage storage area and up a staircase to the cabin floor. This one was delivered to China in 1993 and sold to Kras Air 10 years later. Stored at DME after use by Tatarstan and Kazan, still in basic CXJ colours, but scrapped 2013
