Silk Way IL76-90 and others at Rotterdam

We had some interesting visitors through Rotterdam in the last few days

This one came to collect 30 tons of cigarettes, IL76 TD-90 with the new engines

Thanks for the comments guys.

Those new engines are more vacum cleaner then howlers unfortunatly, but then again it means they are allowed to fly here again.

And yes there is a lot of onion worshipping going on in Holland (we only lack the colors they use in Russia) :rolleyes:

30 tons of cigarettes? Crazy.
Does the IL76 sound different with the new engines?
Nice shots! Good catch with the B732 aswell!

I’ve had one over my house a few times, at around 3,000 or so, and it did sound considerably quieter and has a distinctly different sound to its predecessor. Shame though, I always liked that distinctive ‘whine’ of the earlier versions.

The IL76 always looks ‘different’!

VP-CBA looks better than its original white overall with red cheat line. It was originally owned by the UAE government.
