Unfortunately the "Star of Switzerland" flew later than scheduled and by the time she had been towed out from the crowd, the sun had slipped behind the mountains. However, the firey and smokey start-up was spectacular, as was that sound on take-off

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.
