Almost reminiscent of the new An-148, a very unusual sight is this An-74 variant with the engines underslung rather than overwing as usual. Ex UR-PAV and acquired in 5.09, fitted with a very impressive VIP interior

One of the two Libyan Mils adapted for fire suppression work by Sevastopol Aircraft Plant a couple of years ago. Has a 4000l tank and can pick up from very shallow depths - gave a water dumping demonstration after picking up in the sea just outside the base during show next day. Manufactured in 1982 but had only accumulated about 250 hours by the mid-90s

Libya was a major customer of the SF.260 with an order for 240 of this trainer/tactical support version, some to be assembled in a new plant near Tripoli from the late 1970s. It is not known how many were actually delivered, but at least 12 were recently serviceable after refurbishment, while many of the others have found their way to countries like Burkino Faso, Burundi, Chad, Uganda and Nicaragua. This is one of four just landed after a performance by the Al Fatah Air Show Team. Jamahiriya Air Transport Il-76 5A-DNK is parked behind.

Not the most obvious choice of aircraft to fly cargo, this IL-62 is familiar under the Libyan registration as a VIP aircraft from sightings in Moscow, but was repainted in LAC colours in 10.08. Originally CCCP-86553, she served after 2000 under various shady identities (EL-, 3C-, TL-) before taking up the current reg in 2004

This Hercules was acquired via Benin in 1985 and was hijacked by a Libyan crew to Egypt in 3.87, later being returned. Rework completed in 9.08 by OGMA in Portugal (followed by LAF C-130H's 118 & 115) and returned in the full green LAC livery

By the same token as IL-62 5A-DNY is an odd aircraft to use as a freighter, this is an odd one to use for passengers. Ready to go with a full load of Libyans bound for the central oasis town of Sebha, the debris visible is the result of them sitting on the tarmac around the aircraft for hours before departure - no sense of FOD here!
