CCCP-85157 is probably on the Leningrad run which is what the Tu-154 usually operated for Aeroflot with the Il-62's on the Moscow run. It carries Official Olympic Carrier titles ready for the 1980 Moscow Olympics. Delivered new to Aeroflot as CCCP-85157 on 25 Jun 1976. To Dalavia as RA-85157 on 01 Jun 1993. WFU in 1996.
