Just four of this 18-seat French design were built from 1961, perhaps providing some of the inspiration behind the later Jetstream which also used the strange Astazou turboprop, albeit two less of them. Note the Caravelle-style windows, said to be intended to lessen the need for blinds. I was surprised to learn recently that this aircraft survives, having crash-landed at Sumburgh in the Shetlands in 3.81. Now in private hands having been hauled off the airport, the owner hoping to eventually restore

One of the last Il-62s to emerge from the line at Kazan, completed in 1995 but remaining at the factory unsold. Eventually appeared in this short-lived livery a few months before the photo, but repainted into a pure KAPO (Kazan Aircraft Production Organisation) scheme in May 2000; see later shots in two different versions of this factory operator's markings.
