Photo Comment

Preserved in front of the Vnukovo airport terminal. Two different Tu-104s were preserved here over time, both with fake registration CCCP-Л5412 which belonged to the Tu-104 prototype first flown in autumn 1955. The first aircraft on display was ex CCCP-42450 c/n 921102 (served with Aeroflot from 1960 till 1976), and it is seen in this photo. It appeared here on 15 September 1976, and was scrapped in September 2004. Then on 9 April 2006 it was replaced with another Tu-104, ex CCCP-42507 c/n 021905.
