Olympic arrivals continued again today and I managed to pop in to see a few of them
The most interesting arrivals for me today were the 3 Russian flights, two IL96s -firstly RA-96018 in the morning, then RA-96012 mid afternoon

Then the most pleasant sight of an IL62 when RA-86468 arrived, I’ve not seen one in the air for ages so I’ll spoil you all with 3 shots of a long surviving classic airliner

Another Russian built visitor in the form of Slovak Government Tu 154 OM-BYO
Image

And A Czech Government (or air force) A319
Image

Final arrival before I left was this Saudi B.777 btu not sure if this had Olympic connections or not

Nice to see the old classics in there... not the easiest sky to shoot against!
