The steps up to the Il-18 provide an ideal vantage point to photograph this star of the Flugausstellung L.+P Junior collection, but to get the registration in, I found myself sitting on the Ilyushin's roof. A grand view indeed!

HI-515CT enters Miami's customs apron, where it will park for about 20-30 minutes to settle customs affairs, before continuing to the cargo aprons. This procedure was followed by almost all foreign cargo flights arriving at Miami. This "City of Santo Domingo" (built 1956, ex USAF 54-173) ditched in the Atlantic Ocean off Puerto Rico after an engine fire during take-off on 5 April 1990.

135753 was operated by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. Its upper radome has been zapped with a kangaroo stencil at one the RAAF bases it visited. In that era no visitor escaped being zapped, which was often performed under the cover of darkness.
