Turkmenistan Il-76 at Stansted
This fabulous Turkmenistan Airlines Il-76 arrived at Stansted this morning. We were slightly concerned due to the fair weather cumulus bubbling up, and the runway was closed briefly twice due to a hole (firstly to inspect and clear the mess, and then to patch it). All worked out well though:

Re: Turkmenistan Il-76 at Stansted
Thanks for the comments
You've three more to try for Andy as you know, and knowing you I'm sure you'll make at least one visit if not more!andygolfer wrote:shame I missed it but couldn't be in two places at once. hopefully i'll see the 2nd one next week
Thanks Keith. Yes, there was a lot of people around!keithnewsome wrote:Very nice set PorkScratching ! .... Huge crowd I imagine
Compared to modern boring high bypass turbofans, yeah. But this Il-76 had proper low bypass turbofans - complete with smoke and noisekeithnewsome wrote:Those engines just don't look large enough to me ??
Re: Turkmenistan Il-76 at Stansted
Great shots indeed! Could someone please confirm the times/dates of the remaining two flights and hopefully i can get down for one of them.
I'm not on any of the Stansted lists so i'm a bit out of touch with the goings on!
Cheers

Re: Turkmenistan Il-76 at Stansted
no probs, I should have credited the Stansted Yahoo Group for the info BTW. Otherwise Nick and I will fall foul of the moderators on there.gonetech wrote:Thats great Andy! Thanks for the info.
Oh wait a minute - WE are the moderators on there!

Arrival dates are 06/15/21/30 Aug at 0930 each day, and departing 1400 the following day
