I am visiting Moscow this week. The weather is a bit changeable, we completely rained out today but we did have some succes yesterday.
Because Vnukovo is closed for runway maintenance we have some of that traffic at Domodedovo now which makes for a nice mix. Here are some of the highlights from Saturday June 19th
Edited on a 10 inch notebook so hopefully the quality is OK

Some very nice images there cs. I always think that the livery worn by the Rossia aircraft, still seems to whisper, ‘cold war’. Must be why I like it. Love those Tu134s. I hear that Russian Pres. Medvedev, wants to ground all Tu134s, following the recent accident in Russia.

thanks for the replies guys, I’ll try and edit and post some more the coming days but the days are long and spare time short.
The law has no prpblems with spotters at Domodedovo, as long as you behave there is absolutely no problem.
The Moscow airports have different rules. If the state transport fleet of Rossia is involved, security becomes tighter.
Vnukovo does indeed have 2 runways, they are resurfacing one but that is including the point where the two cross.
The airport is not closed but reduced to 1 runway of 2000 meters length.

I thought Vnukovo had two ruways?

Absolutely superb stuff. No problems with the law taking photos from that vantage point ?

Great end with the 2 TU154’S makes me depressed seeing all that western junk dominating Russian sky now also.
They have some stunning liveries over there.. Air Volga woah!
My thoughts exactly. But a smashing set of pics civil spotter
